The Intel Celeron 300A is well known for its overclocking ability. It can at least gain 50% of its original clock speed. Thus, in
this review, I overclocked the Celeron 300A to at least 450 MHz. Any increase after that, the system goes unstable. 510 MHz is
achievable, but somewhat unstable if ran for a long time. Scores will show what kind of performance increase can be seen when
overclocking the CPU through the use of synthetic and gaming benchmarks. The range of the CPU's clock will be 300 MHz (default),
450 MHz, and 510 MHz.
Also, in this review there will be 4 video cards installed, side by side with an Intel Celeron 300A CPU. It will show how much
the video cards can do combined with the Intel Celeron 300A CPU when playing games. The video cards will pretty much see CPU
limitations, but to what limitation does it see. It would be great to see how much the video cards can do with a CPU that is under
powered.
The four video cards tested are: ATI Rage Pro 8 MB, 3dfx Voodoo3 2000 16 MB, 3dfx Voodoo3 3000 16 MB, and NVIDIA GeForce2 MX (400)
32 MB.
