The Celeron 366A is perhaps the most popular Mendocino processor model for overclocking enthusiasts. This chip features a 5.5× multiplier that responds well to 100-MHz front-side bus overclocking, yielding an impressive 550-MHz core operating speed. With this third model in the Mendocino family, Intel had nearly perfected the Celeron core for high-frequency operation in hopes of extending the Celeron line beyond 500 MHz.
The Celeron 366A is so well crafted that many units can scale easily beyond 600 MHz with the help of a quality cooling solution. The 366A attracted the attention of many professional users, as this chip was often used to build overclockable dual processor systems. According to most surveys, more than 90% of all Celeron 366A units can attain a stable overclock to 550 MHz with minimal intervention.
