Hi folks,

I have a Celeron 1.7 in my collection. Have a few questions about it. Intel states this S-spec is for a 130nm Northwood core, CPU-world seems to think it is a Willamette 180nm . Anyone know for sure who is right? I can't find any mention other than Intel on the 'net for a Northwood Celly 1.7, all talk about the willamette.
Now as far as i can tell SL5's are Willamette, SL6's Northwood, SL7's Prescott. so logically it should be a northwood core right?
Can't check it out myself just now with CPU-Z as i'm out of thermal paste Sad

Anyhow, thanks.

Your Celly is 100% Wilamette.

I think you've meant not Intel. You're referring to the dumbest ark.intel.com and it's dead wrong in most cases. The valid info is in Intel's datasheets - that's the source to trust.

That's not true too. Maybe mostly but this one is only 80% accurate. There are SL6 Wilamette CPUs (all Celeron Wilamettes for example), SL7 Northwoods and so on.

Thanks both, yep I was using Intel Ark, Hmm you'd think they would have that right at least!
My assumptions on the Sspecs were based purely on my own small collection and that is how it happens to be.

thanks and best regards. Smile
