Celeron
The Celeron is a discontinued series of IA-32 and x86-64 computer microprocessors targeted at low-cost personal computers, manufactured by Intel from 1998 to 2023. The first Celeron-branded CPU was introduced on April 15, 1998, and was based on the Pentium II. Starting with the Prescott Celeron D and Conroe Celeron M, Celeron processors have supported both 32-bit and 64-bit x86 software. They typically include smaller CPU caches and fewer features, resulting in lower performance compared to Intel’s mainstream brands Pentium or Core. While some Celeron designs have achieved strong performance for their segment, the majority of the Celeron line has exhibited noticeably degraded performance. Intel’s higher-end brands command premium prices in part because they offer larger caches and advanced features that Celeron processors lack. In September 2022, Intel announced that the Celeron brand, along with Pentium, were to be replaced with the new "Intel Processor" branding for low-end processors...
