well I dont know ie I should have just added this to my post about the mobos or not but here goes
in my sons build I am very limited by my budget, and I couldnt afford to spend $200 on a nice P4 and I prefer intel products it's what I know about
so I got a great price on a celeronD 2.93 512 cache brandnew never open for under $50 on ebay. when I started gaming I had a older celeron 2.8 128 cache I played doom3 ,HL2, tribes vengenace all rather new and demanding games surpisingly the celeron did ok along with a ATI 9550, it isnt a gamers dream machine but it did ok, of course I upgraded everything in time, but for a starter gamer it was perfect. I am just courious to know if anyone knows how the celeron D preforms? I know the 2.93 is rather new intel made it to compete with th3 sempron and pci express. it will be backed by a 6600gt or a 9800pro AGP video card I have 1 of each I will see which one works best in his rig. but anything anyone can share about the new celeron D would be very helpful
