You're right, except for Celeron D part. Celeron D was the last step of NetBurst architecture, notorious for its high power consumptions and thus screaming stock fans. This is Core 2 architecture, which runs much cooler and has better perfomance/MHz

Also, for some reason the spec shows Celeron 220 CPU which is 1,2 MHz, not 1,33: http://www.intel.com/products/motherboard/d201gly2/configs.h...



Ahh. Makes sense now. The first one I got, more than a year ago had a big fan and ran quite hot. All the ones since then I've gotten without a fan. I checked a recent one. Not D.

Looks like there may have been a short lived D version thats not as nice. Good eye.

Also disregard my power measurements since I did them on the first one. The consumption on more recent ones may well be lower.
