FYI I got my specs from this >webpage:http://www6.tomshardware.com/cpu/20020903/p4_celeron-01.html. The difference in chess is minimal. In other applications though the Celeron(P4) is ridiculously slow. By ridiculously slow I mean a Celeron(P4) 2.2GHz overclocked to nearly 4GHz still lost to a Duron 1.3GHz in some stuff. Thats pretty bad IMO. In chess, though, it should be comparible to the P4 (Although P4's are pretty slow at chess anyway). I have a pretty extensive list of results with Crafty and one of those results is the Celeron(P4) core, compare it to the Celeron(P3) core. :) http://speedycpu.dyndns.org/crafty/bench.html
