The difference between Celeron and Pentium processors is in the cache memory,
processor pentium is more expensive because it have more cache memory and celeron have minus memory cache.
PIII 450 - Cache Memory - 512Kb
Celeron 466 - Cache Memory - 128 Kb
Or be, the celeron processor is weak against pentium processor just because they want, and is for who don't have money to buy a new pentium processor can buy a celeron processor.
This memory is the processor cache memory, don't has nothing to do with memory cache in motherboard.
If you see your stats of computer you'll see:
Cache Lvl 1
and
Cache Lvl 2
