Cel 1ghz or PIII 550 on BH6?

[War350]

Which one of these chips would have the overall better performance. Do you think the Cel 1ghz would outmark the PIII550 by much?? Play mostly 3d firstperson games. Voodoo 5 5500.

Thanks

Celeron 1GHz is most definitely faster then a PIII 550MHz.

a celery 1ghz would beat the pants off of a p3 550! :Q

A good formula would be PIII 800 = Celeron II 1000. You give away about 200mhz going from a PIII to CII. The Celeron II 1000 is a great upgrade path for the price!

cel 1ghz will be a better, not just of its overclockability, but the mhz difference

Another opinion for you:

I have a system with a Celeron 950 and another with a P3-733. The benchmarks on these two are almost identical.
