The original Celeron (2-3 years ago) had no L2
cache, but 2nd generation and above do have an integrated L2 cache.

You are correct about the Celeron it has no
cache. As a general rule, when I buy a new computer, I want the hardware not
to be integrated. Its cheaper and easier to make changes and
repairs.

two cents is don’t purchase a computer with an integrated graphics card,
especially with 4mb ram. That’s
like buying a car with a governor that keeps it below 45mph.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> The Cache is different from the Ram
memory. It resides near the
processor and offloads tasks to free up the processor and allows faster
throughput. 256K is what comes
with a Celeron chip and the Pentium usually has 512K.<SPAN

computer. Just my opinion.<SPAN

looking at new computer and also thinking of buying a good charting
program. Dell told me this new computer I am thinking of
purchasing has a graphic card that is 'integrated', meaning unremovable,
and also 4mb ram only. He suggested I check first to see if
it may not be strong enough for my intended charting software program.
He also mentioned the cache is 256mb , and I read a good charting
program needs to work on 512mb cache. I am thinking of
putting 256x2 mb ram onto this new computer.
Is Cache & Ram 2 different kinds of
memories? I thought I know I lot, but now I really think I know
nothing...:-( TYIA for any guidances.... Have a nice
weekend, all of you :-)<SPAN
