It all began with the “Upgrade” If you read me on a regular basis then you’ll know my story. If not there will be a link at the end of this to the Epinion that I have written on my whole Upgrading ordeal. I used to have a lowly Pentium 166 MHZ computer....
Pros: free downloadable utiltiy Cons: supports PIII only
You probably have heard sometimes in news that CPU manufacturers, namely Intel, are the target of illegal practices.. counterfeit of CPU's.
It can be a nightmare, but now there is something against it.
Pros: Cheap, Overclockable to 825Mhz, Reliable, Runs Cool, Easy to install, Easy to Overclock Cons: The stock Cooling Fan
Well I finally upgraded from my old skool Pentuim 233. I built my own system this time. It's really alot better to do so if can. When you go out and just buy a pre-made system your gettin riped-off. They put the cheapest hardware in those machines....
Pros: Lots Of Tools For Your Pentium III Cons: You Must Be A Registered Member To Use
So you gave into the hype and bought a Pentium III computer because it’s the latest, greatest thing in processors. Now what, you ask. I have the technology...so as a casual home user, how am I going to put this Pentium III to work for...
Pros: Easy, Cheap Upgrade. Great Performance. Cons: Be Sure of Compatibility!!
Just a few days ago I upgraded my Pentium II 450 to a Pentium III 600 by simply swapping out the CPUs. Before attempting the upgrade, I made sure that my motherboard could handle this processor. The Pentium III 600 is the fastest CPU that is compatible...
Pros: Compatibility - Speed - & Speed! Cons: price (CPUs are NOT Cheap!)
Recently I gave into the “pressure” and purchased a new Intel Pentium III processor. For over a year my main system was running on a P2-350, and truthfully I thought that the speed was incredibly fast and that I did not need an upgrade. However,...
Pros: Save money, more power Cons: Requires knowledge. Potential exist to ruin hardware if acting irresponsibly
With the high price of processors at the top end of the spectrum, combined with the ability to run processors faster than their rated speed, why pay extra for performance when you can enhance the performance of your existing processor. Before you read...
Pros: reliable, excellent technical and design support Cons: $ a little pricier than AMD
I have dealt with several different brands of CPU's from intel, AMD, Cyrix, Alpha and even motorola. All of the processors can not be compared directly since the processor architecture is so different. Intel, AMD and Cyrix have produced CISC (complex...
Pros: Affordable, Quick, Durable, Does its Job Cons: One Step Towards Greatness
Of all the explicit components who are acknowledged as outstanding processors, the pIII processor is probably the most used and appreciated. Perhaps this is because of its work being in the form of much advertisements and glory, or more likely...
I bought my first real computer some five odd years ago from Gateway. It was a Pentium 75 with a whopping 8 megs of RAM. Nonetheless, I was excited. Eventually over time I made all the necessary upgrades. Memory, modem, hard drive, keyboard, monitor...
Pros: Save money without sacrificing performance Cons: Requires knowledge. Potential exist to ruin hardware if acting irresponsibly
In the age of rapid obsolescence of computer gear, it is expensive to have a computer that is state of the art. The Leading Edge quickly become the Bleeding Edge because not only is the price differential between a top of the line processor, and the...
Pros: Very Fast, very slick, easy (more or less) to install... Cons: None at this time...
Disclaimer:this review is intended for computer layman who have a very good understanding of the terms used throughout this review, and a broad understanding of main board and processor technology.
Pros: Inexpensive and Fast Cons: It's 2nd To AMD in Speed
The PIII has been hounded lately about being in second place next to AMD Athlon processors and yes maybe it does run faster, but I own a PIII 450 and it’s a very reliable and stable processor. I built my computer myself and I felt that the PIII was...
I am an avid Intel user. They have never let me down in the past, and I have built over 100 Intel machines. This may not seam like a lot to a huge manufacture, but I work on these in my spare time. I purchased my first Intel PIII processor late last...
Pros: price, performance, sse, works with the rest of my current system Cons: you feel guilty parting with your trusty p2-400 which has served you well for the last few years.
Considering the lack of quality chipsets since Intel's BX was released two years ago, I have been holding off on upgrading my pc. I finally gave in (what can i say?? I'm a PC Power Junky) and I decided to buy a p3 700e rather than overhaul my entire...
