Intel is preparing to upgrade its Celeron notebook processors aimed at the value market segment. Most of them are based on the company's Montevina platform, but as of Q2 2010, Intel plans to release an Arrandale 32nm-based Celeron P4500.


The P4500 has two 1.86GHz clocked cores and graphics clocked at 500MHz. Since it's a Celeron it doesn’t support a turbo overclocking, but the graphics can overclock to 667MHz. The CPU supports DDR3 1066 and has 2MB cache, which is the biggest amount of cache we saw in a mobile Celeron to date.

The 35W TDP is at not so impressive, but Calpella based notebooks with Celeron P4500 will definitely make a big performance boost in the Value notebook market.

A current king of that category is Celeron T3300. It clocked at 2.0GHz and has 1MB cache, but it fits the Montevina plus notebooks.
