The New Celeron & Sempron Are An Overclocker's Dream

Here's something than will turns head and brings smile to the faces of many underprivileged gamers in the world who face the daily agony of low resolutions and medium quality graphics. Who suffer in silence with underpowered software and thrashing hard drives. Who face humiliations galore turning up to LANs and try to shoot at blury, malformed blobs while all their mates are enjoying high-poly, bump-mapped, dynamically-lit opponents.

Sharky has run a few tests and discovered that the golden era of the Celeron 300A has indeed returned. The new batches of Celerons and AMD Semprons overclock a treat! And their gaming performance is right up there with the Pentium 4-3.0E. They overclock a 2.8Ghz CeleronD 335 to 3.55Ghz and a 1.8Ghz Sempron 3100 to 2.1 Ghz.

The Doom3 benchmark sees these 2 budget screamers, the P4-2.8E and P4-3.0E all within 2 fps of each other and the Sempron coming out on top!

YESSSSSSSSS there IS a gaming god after all and lo, he doth proclaimeth, "Let their be fun!".
