I'm getting one of those Celeron 566's with the .18 core. They say getting 850Mhz or more is almost a guaranteed overclock! And it can be done on my old BH6... sweet!

I found one for $156 that should be mine by tomorrow! 850Mhz, here I come!

Nope, firingsquad is wrong on this.

Check out http://www.intel.com/design/celeron/index.htm

"All the Intel Celeron processors are available in either the plastic pin grid array (PPGA - 533, 500 and 466 MHz.) package or the Flip-Chip Pin Grid Array (FC-PGA - 600 and 566 MHz) package . Both packages are compatible with the 370 pin socket"
