pentium or celeron?

[mattsoftnet]

what would preform better for a web server that runs php, mysql, and a bunch of file transfers. what has better performance, a pentium III 1.2ghz or a celeron 1.7ghz. both with 1gb ram and an 80gb hard drive running cent os.

 

[Robert]

P3 1.2Ghz

 

[Dini]

p3 1.2, some Pentium III processors run even better than the first Pentium IV ones.

 

[Richard]

Celeron is a cheap version of the Pentium, a 1.2 Pentium will be better than a 2.0 Celeron for hosting any day.

 

[goblin77]

Yeah, Pantium is much better than Celeron.

 

[AvailNetworks]

the 1.2 is generally a pretty good sized workhorse for a web unit. Celerons can be nice but when it comes to database driven applications they tend to crap out pretty fast.

 

[Demolay]

pentium III 1.2ghz will do the best not celeron as celeron is not a good one is slow

 

[AvailNetworks]

um....what?

 

[Zeppelin]

Here you can find some difference in Pentium vs Celeron performance.
