Type of processors that Intel named
Intel Celeron is a "budget" processor for less-intensive computing tasks such as e-mailing, light web Surfing and word processing. Since people have digital cameras and like to deal with photos and people like to listen, download music and burn CDs, Intel has made them much faster.
Intel Pentium was born in 1993??? (correct me if I'm wrong) and still continues today. Most PCs are Intel Pentiums. Intel has the Pentium, Pentium Pro (kind of like the "early, early, 1995 version of the Xeon/Itanium, which is a powerful CPU), Pentium II, Pentium III and Pentium 4. Now they are just called Pentiums, with subtitles like duo-core, quad-core, etc. Intel Pentiums are mainstream processors, with the Xeon/Itanium, which are workstation and server computer processors, being the upper stream processors.

∙ 15y agoIntel is a brand of processors. A processor is the "brain" of the computer which does all the calculations necessary to run a program. Pentium is a model line that was stopped a few years ago and replaced with newer, better processors. the Pentium line consisted of Pentium I, II, III, and IV series, each being a newer, better line of products. However, these have been replaced by the Centrino, Centrino 2, Core 2 Duo, Core 2 Quad, Core 2 Extreme, and i7 series of processors. Computers with Pentium series of processors are generally only capable of running only the most basic of programs and should not be purchased except for those on a tight budget who only use the internet and type Word documents.
The "R" following both those words was intended to be an (R) symbol indicating a registered trademark of Intel Corporation

What is better an Intel Pentium III or an Intel Celeron?
Celeron doesn't refer to any particular processor series. Celerons were cost-reduced versions of their Pentium equivalents. The Celeron in question could be based on a Pentium 2, Pentium 3, Pentium 4, Pentium D, or Core 2 Duo. In which case the answers would be "Pentium 3, Usually Pentium 3, Celeron, Celeron, and Celeron", respectively.
How much faster Intel Pentium Dual Core T4200 than Intel Celeron 585?
non!!! Intel celeron is better than Intel Pentium dual core
Is Intel Pentium 2.13 GHz better than Intel celeron 2.3GHz?
it seems celeron is better unless Pentium has 2 cores
Is the Intel Celeron M an Intel Core-based processor?
No. The Celeron and Pentium Ms predate the Intel Core line by several years.
What is better Intel Pentium T4300 or Intel Celeron T3000?
The Intel Pentium T4300 by a pretty good margin The Celeron has a reduced cache compliment with substantially reduces it's performance, even if the frequency and FSB were higher.
What is an Intel Celeron?
AnswerA Celeron was a cost-reduced version of an Intel Pentium II, Pentium III, Pentium 4, Pentium D, or Pentium M. It was made cheaper by not including as much L2 cache (the first ones had none at all), and was aimed primarily at the lower-end market.
Is Intel Celeron 900 2.20 Ghz a good processor?
Intel celeron is the lowest processor Intel offers. Below is the list from best to worst: Intel core i7 Intel core i5 Intel core 2 quad Intel core 2 duo Intel core 2 solo Intel pentium Intel celeron For laptops: Intel core i7 Intel core 2 extreme Intel core 2 quad Intel core 2 duo Intel centrino Intel pentium Intel celeron
Why was the Intel Celeron introduced when the Intel Pentium III was introduced?
It wasn't. It was introduced back when the Pentium II was introduced. The Celeron was created because the L2 cache chips used in the Pentium II were rather expensive, and they wanted to provide a low-end alternative.
Which is better 1.5GHz dual core B800 intel celeron M or a 2.1 GHz Intel Pentium B950?
With the dual core you can process more, but with the pentium at a slightly higher rate, I'd go with the celeron however.
Could a PC with an Intel Celeron run a game that requires an Intel Pentium III?
Possibly. "Celeron" doesn't refer to any particular processor. They are cost-reduced versions of the Intel Pentium II, Pentium III, Pentium 4, Pentium M, and Core 2 Duo. Assuming that your Celeron is based on a processor that is faster than the Pentium III, you shouldn't have any problems. If yours is based on the Pentium III, check the clock speed. A 1.2 GHz Celeron, for instance, is probably fast enough for a game that requires a 1 GHz Pentium III.Other factors, such as the graphics card of your system, may also be important.
What are the four major groups families processor desktop of Intel?
the Core, the Pentium, the Celeron, and the Atom families
Can you give a List of Intel CPU?
Pentium Duo Quad, Pentium core duo, Pentium D, Xeon, Itanium, Pentium M, Pentium 4, Celeron, Pentium 3, Pentium 2, Pentium Pro, 486, 386, 286.
