Ever since Intel introduced their Northwood core for the Pentium 4, it renewed faith in Intel users who were skeptical to upgrade to the Pentium 4 Willamette. With the Northwood version of the P4 1.6 processor, users were able to easily overclock them to 2.2 respectively by simply bumping the front side bus up to 133 MHz, which is 533 MHz respectively. Overclockers praised and named the 1.6A “The Next Celeron 300A” due to its ease of overclock-ability very much like the Celeron 300A, which was able to run at 450 MHz by simply bumping the FSB up to 100 MHz.
