At what point does a Northwood Celeron (128K L2) overtake a Northwood Pentium 4 (512K L2)?
Or more specifically: at what point does a Northwood Celeron overtake a P4 1.8A ?
Assume both are running on identical platforms with identical RAM (say, 2x1GB of DDR200).
If you want to get even more specific, assume the CPU is being used for a Source-based game server.
My own research tells me that a Northwood Celeron of around 2.4-2.6 GHz would surpass the P4 1.8A in performance. I have a feeling I could be wrong though.
Any thoughts? The more technical, the better.
