Intel Celeron 847 vs Atom N2600 |
Intel Celeron 847
- 1.1 GHz
- Dual core
Reasons to buy the Intel Celeron 847
 | Has virtualization support Yes |
Comparing the Intel Celeron 847 and the Intel Atom N2600 is a nostalgic one, to be honest. Two years isn’t a long time, but in the world of technology- where things fly by so fast- it is a really long time. But, the short answer here is that the Atom is the better processor.
Both processors offer two cores each, but the Atom’s cores clock higher than those of the Celeron- 1.6GHz and 1.1GHz respectively. Not only that, but the Atom is hyperthreaded, which means it can handle four threads to the two of the Celeron. Furthermore the Atom offers a better memory controller and better power consumption and performance-per-watt rating.
So, as a brief conclusion, as the sheet below clearly shows the Intel Atom N2600 is better than the Intel Celeron 847.
