I would think a Coppermine Celeron 1100 is about equal to a P3 866 on average with the Celeron 950 beeing equal to a P3 733. It was some time ago but I did quite alot of benching comparing Coppermine Celerons and Coppermine P3s. Some memory bottlenecked stuff will run close to 33% faster on the P3 (clock for clock) but stuff that fits into the Celerons 128KB L2 will run almost as fast on the Celeron as on the P3 (clock for clock).

But a Celeron 950Mhz is still faster than a Pentium 3 750Mhz on a 100FSB right?

Yes it should perform at least as good as a P3 800((100) and probably more like a P3 850 in most cases.

You can always download some benchmarks and run some tests to see how your hardware performs with the two CPUs.

Can you suggest some good CPU and GPU benchmarking tools? Particularly ones that work well with 90's systems?

Thanks.

In this thread benchmarking is discussed and there are links to the benchmarks.

VOGONS Benchmark archive?

You should focus on benchmarking games you like to play though.

If you are interested in games, then use games as benchmarks. Check wich ones were used in hardware reviews of that times to compare the performance.
