Iv'e noticed that Durons are lower priced than Celerons, but are Durons really faster? And do Celerons support DDR ram? I know Duron does. Witch is better?

I would chose a duron if I could only chose one.Celerons run at 66mhz front bus speed,durons at 100mhz.That alone can make a duron run faster.They are cheaper.They are more durable.(I have put all of mine through hell and have yet to have one fail).Celerons can be a little more stable as I have hered of some peeps having trouble with amd's crashing for no reason( look throught these very forums) I have never had that trouble.Durons are easyer to hack as they can be unlocked.So its realy up to opinion.Just like wether a ford is better than a chevy.(I perfer chevys)

there is no debate. the duron is so much better than a celeron. i have a friend that runng his 1.3 duron at 1.6 [12*135] with the STOCK HEATSINK. thats 300+mhz with no extra colling than retail heatsink. also, its better to get a duron because it provides excellent speed, plus you can save money and by something else. intel is a joke in the processor race. and durons are perfectly stable.

Ya, plus it's an AMD. :p

With the faster FSB, and a general better architecture, it will definitely be better.

are there any socket 7 celeron then?
My mobo is a tx pro ii and I am running k6 2 500 @ 450MHz
what is the fastest processor that I can run on this mobo?
If I buy a new mobo which one can I buy that can offer me service for a loong time?(just like the tx pro did.. I used 6x86L them MII and finally k6-2)
I now have three different processors and 1 mobo that I dont want to throw away. If I want to rack them where do I start?

there's no socket 7 based celeron. AMD K6-2 550 is the maximum for a socket 7. Get a Chaintech Socket A board which supports Durons and Athlons. For information on Chaintech products, visit www.chaintech.com.tw
it is one of the coolest running boards (CPUs run cooler)

Duron is better than Pentium III, Celeron, & Cyrix. The Duron is a very well built CPU.
