FIC A440 Series Service Manual
The integrated L2 cache is designed to help improve performance, and it complements the
system bus by providing critical data faster and reducing total system power consumption.
The mobile Pentium III processor’s 64-bit wide Gunning Transceiver Logic (GTL+) system
bus provides a glue-less, point-to-point interface for an I/O bridge/memory controller, and is
compatible with the 440BX AGPset, 440ZX-M AGPset, and the 440MX Chipset.

4.4.2 Intel Mobile Celeron Features
The Intel Celeron processor is designed for uni-processor based Value PC and is binary
compatible with previous generation Intel architecture processors. The Intel Celeron
processor provides good performance for applications running on advanced operating systems
such as Windows 95/98, Windows NT, and UNIX. This is achieved by integrating the best
attributes of Intel processors – the dynamic execution performance of the P6 micro-
architecture plus the capabilities of MMX technology – bringing a balanced level of
performance to the Value PC market segment.
