Indeed they were. I had that exact setup. Overclocked the hell out of them. Unlike the 550 MHz someone else suggested, I'm 97.6% sure I only had them clocked

Indeed they were. I had that exact setup. Overclocked the hell out of them. Unlike the 550 MHz someone else suggested, I'm 97.6% sure I only had them clocked at 450 MHz.
- StillBored 7y agoI built a bunch of them and still have mine in the attic. But alas your probably like me and by the time I actually purchased one for myself the overclocking abilities were much less than the original ones which went from 300->500Mhz fairly easily. IIRC its because Intel was selling 400 and 450Mhz ones and binning all the good ones into the upper tier bins.
- milesward 7y agoYup, dual 450 celery was my gaaaangster setup at my silly startup :)
- dusted 7y agoDual celery story: Me being around 14, not allowed to build my own PC, but I got to spec it, I ordered dual CPU's. The company put in a dual slot 1 motherboard, and then two celerons in slot1 adapters.. that didn't support SMP. After complaining for a while, they traded the two celerons and adapters for a single P3 (I think I was being had). It took a year or two before I was able to afford the second P3. I still hold a grudge towards that particular computer shop, or I would, hadn't they gone out of biz. I did run a lot of SETI@home on that P3, it earned me my first two certificates :D
- MisterTea 7y agoI had a BP6 and remember 450 too (I may still have it tucked away somewhere). I think there was a 333 that could be pushed to 550 or something but not in SMP and I think it was slot 1 and not socket 370.
