Compare it yourself at this website >http://www.rebel.nl/bech.htm Hello Jorge, I do not own an Athlon or Celeron machine but I can tell you for sure the speed given for the AMD K6-3-450 is exactly what I get on my K6-3-450. I have no problem believing the K6-3-450 is faster than Pentiums or Athlons when running Rebel at the same Mhz. This may not be true of all programs however. Jim Walker
