hi guys i'm new and i will make it fast

i read here in Intel
http://www.intel.com/products/desktop/processors/celeron.htm

and i don't know anything about Intel Processors, there is Intel Celeron, Intel Pentium and Intel Core and i don't know what are these

all i want to know whats the better is Celeron better than Pentium or is Pentium better than Celeron, Core better than Pentium or Pentium better than Core, Core is the top of them or what?

i don't know much about motherboards, CPUs and Processors, i just need help
 
Each name there is totally different socket type. The Celerons came out before the Pentium 4s for the Intel line up of single core model cpus. The Core 2 Duos, Extremes are the more recent dual core Socket 775 type models with the latest being the quad core Q series.

The Pentiums were often seeing the faster cpu clock speed while they also ran hotter then the older Celeron models. Intel addresses that problem with Core and later Core 2 dual cores to see much lower stock temps. AMD on the other hand seemed to always have models that ran cooler.

The best cpu you would choose however would mainly depemd on the type of system you were building. The quad cores and "work horse" dual core models would be the type of models used for multitasking systems and server cases to the greater extent while some models offer the best performance for gaming builds. Certain models of each socket type are noted for better overclocking speeds.

Right now the Core 2 Duo and the Core 2 Quad are the best processors clock for clock period! The Celeron is just a decapitated Pentium as is the Sempron is to the Athlon.

what are you trying to said that Celeron is old and Pentium is better than Celeron and for the time being i prefer using Pentium than Core

Because some one offer me a Celeron Processor and Pentium 4 and i really don't know what to pick, so should i pick Pentium 4, I'm talking about Desktop PC and right know I'm using my laptop and i don't know so much about desktop PCs:confused:
 
It wasn't the Semprons that lacked so much as it was the Durons! Those were the slow boats of the AMD line back then. For Intel it depemded mainly on whether the socket was a 423 or 478 compated to the newer 775 models seen later for the Pentiums and now Core 2s.

For the longest time Intel simply focused on clock speed while AMD took a lead with seeing more work done per clock cycle giving them the former edge for gaming builds. Some are now pointing at the finally released AMD quads in both ways there. For now however most will jump on the Intel band wagon to grab a C2 Duo, Extreme or quad there.

As StrangleHold said, it depends on the model and speed. If you're asking about a 2.8GHz Celeron vs a 1.8GHz Pentium 4, then the Celeron would be better in most cases.
 
The main thing to remember about Intel up until the Core 2s and Q series quad core models came out seeing a rethinking by Intel there is that everything focused on cpu clock speeds and socket types until that time. Even with the mobile units(;aptops - notebooks) that would also apply there to some extent.

For desktops it depends on whether that will be prebuilt with the options per purchase a company like HP or Dell offers or one you assemble yourself where the list of options is almost endless at any given time to some degree there. What that means is that you are the one that chooses what hardwares, softwares, even operating system that goes into it.

The Sempron was no more than the name change for the Duron, most just had less L1 cache and all of them had less L2. They just changed the name at the end of the Socket A line to Sempron. But the Duron and Sempron were just like I said decapitated Athlon cores.
 
Tell that one to those that rave about ocing the older Semprons! "oh gee I could see... blah blah blah" when explaining that the XP line there was the real performer.
 
I still have a old Duron 1.6 Applebred core, overclocks like crazy. Had this thing up to 2.4. It was based on the Thoroughbred Athlon Core. When they changed the name to Sempron the first ones were still using the Throughbred cores, then changed to the Thorton then at the end of socket A the Barton core. All durons and Semprons have Athlon cores with just less L1 and L2

thats the answer i want to see thanks;)
the best possessor and motherboard is Intel right?:confused:
cuz he offered me an LG mother board i think not Intel
 
The best processor still depends on the type of system. For boards that goes into a totally different catagory there with the NVidia nForce shipsets generally taking the lead over Intel.
 
The only reason I would go for Nvidia chipset running a Intel processor is if I wanted SLI otherwise the P35 or if you want to spend more money a X38 chipset would be your best bet.

Again that goes back to the type of build. Many want the SLI capability even if they end up running with a single card by itself. The support is one thing looked at here. Besides the chipset the make and model board also plays a big role.

The LG brand name is typically seen on lcd monitors and optical drives for the most part. You may confused part of the model number of the board as being the brand name. Yet EVGA sees boards as well as their main line of video cards.
 
The Penitum is alot better than the Celeron, even though your Celerons clock speed may be faster you also have to consider the speed of the Front Side Bus which dertimnes how fast the processor can communicate with the rest of the system so the more the FSB speed the better the system performace. Please, correct me if I am wrong.

Also, I believe that to really tell the performace of AMD processors you have to look at the rating, which I think is the number as the end of the processor such as the Athlon 64 3800+ is equivelent in peformance as a Pentium 4 processor with 3.8GHz clock speed.

As I said correct me if I am wrong.

The first part is very true, you also should note that the Pentium's have larger caches then the Celeron, which also account for their increased performance.

As for the AMD's, the 3800+ doesn't equal a P4 at 3.8GHz, which is a common misconception.
 
It's not any misconception here. The FX-60 dual core model would be a far better challenger since the 3800+ in the 939 line saw two different types of 2ghz processors. The single core and the 3800+ X2 models. That being the lowest in the X2 line seen there.

A fast AMD dual core cpu would be a different story. But even the older Socket A models were challening the older P4s for gaming.

You ever heard that song, Fake it. It comes to mind when ever I read one of your post. Its almost like a copy and paste from a Building computers for dummies book.
