I have a Celeron D 2.4 overclocked to 3.6. Runs hot, over 60C at that speed,
but that's like all Prescott's, but its pretty fast. That's also with the
stock heatsink and fan. I have the Socket 478 version, but I know they make
some of the faster Celeron D's in the Socket T.

You might consider starting with slightly slower Celeron D so when you get
get to 800 MHZ fsb it won't be quite as hot or fast.

They're 533 or 133 bus, whichever way you prefer to look at it. So PC3200
will handle almost any overclock you can throw at it.

Pair it up with a cheap Abit or Asus motherboard and you should be good to
go.

Hello,

I'm currently running a Celeron 2ghz at 2.66ghz on a Asus P4B 533
motherboard. This is at default voltage, default Intel cooler,133Mhz
bus speed and some noname PC 2100 / 2700 DDR memory. This celeron run
24x7 , as it is used on a small server on my home network. I'm really
satisfied of this configuration. (While it is not used for gaming). It
remembers me my old Celeron 300A@45à :-)

i'm looking to build a mini-pc, at low/medium cost. What is currently
the equivalent of this celeron on the market (best price / oc ratio
with 100% stability). It aims to be a small Linux server, so i will
prefer stable hardware compare to high end , latest release peripheral
where i may have some difficult to identify all drivers.

Thanks in advance.

Gelu Laurent
