Cheaper but slower version of the Intel Pentium processor, used in budget computers but quite fast enough for most users.
A PC processor - Intel's budget chip, cheaper than the Pentium, but also less powerful.
Intel processor used by less expensive, basic PCs. 4.10
Brand name of Intel's lower-performance processor developed for use in less-expensive home computers.
A brand name of Intel for a version of their Pentium II microprocessor. Celeron processors are a "bargain" version that have less computing power than other Pentium II chips.
A brand of processors from Intel for the basic PC market, available in 333-MHz, 300A-MHz, 300-MHz and 266-MHz operating frequencies. All Celeron processors are based on the Intel 0.25 micron CMOS process technology. The processors are in the single edge processor package (SEPP). They have the same P6 micro architecture core as the Pentium II processor, and provide the performance to run most common applications on operating systems. They are designed for dependability and cost efficiency.
The Intel processor for the cheaper market. This processor contains less cache.
An entry-level microprocessor, made by Intel.
Intel Corporation's trade name for its family of microprocessors meant for use in low-end computers. A Celeron is about one third the cost of a similar speed Pentium.
An older microprocessor from Intel; it won't be found in new PCs after 2001.
Intel's budget line of processors, the Celeron is suited for basic computer use.
Brand name of a processor made by Intel. Computes information at speeds between 1.06 GHz and 2 GHz.
The name for the original Pentium processor.
Celeron is a brand name given by Intel Corp. to a large number of different x86 microprocessor models that they produced and marketed as a budget/value CPU line. The Celeron family complements Intel's higher-performance (and more expensive) product lines (currently Core 2 Duo and formerly Pentium). Introduced in April 1998, the first Celeron was based on the Pentium II core.
