i'm looking to upgrade the processor on my computer. i'll have to use the powerleap neo-s370 adaptor because my mobo isn't setup for fc-pga. i can only run the processor at 100mhz front side bus so as far as i can see the fastest i can get is a 1ghz for the money. i know they go up to 1.1 but that extra 100mhz isn't worth the premium imho. i've been eyeballing either the p3 or the celeron. the only difference i can tell is that the p3 has 256 l2 cache while the celeron has 128 l2 cache. is there that dramatic of a performance difference between the two to warrant the $70+ difference between them? i don't really do much that's cpu intensive save for image editting for websites. nothing 3d as of yet...just scan, crop, and code. i don't really play many games either though that could always change. any input would be appreciated. thanks.
