Wow, my friend and i were talking about that today..thx for the lil chart there Wiggo i my self played along with the "Intel run Cooler"...:thumb:

I've been havin' some probs of late convincin' ppl of the facts but when I came across this neat little table I decided to steal it (yep straight from... umm... errr.... oh yeah, www.aceshardware.com). :devil:

yep, I plan on getting a 2100+ T-bred revision B with an slk-900 and a 92mm fan that puts out almost 70cfm straight into my heatsink:D

I'm very impressed with how well AMD managed the thouroughbred's heat situation compared to the palamino.

For those that wish to use the slk-900, you might want to check out this link:D as it showed me my A7N8X Dx would require major rework to use it! :( :tears:

By the way sandman001 your board is good to go!:bounce2: :bounce:

Bah! A Volcano 7+ should be more than enough to keep ya cool. :p

nothing wrong with overkill though

Wiggo · #8 (**permalink**) 03-20-2003, 09:55 PM

Yeah I thought that not long ago but I proved myself wrong.

Yup, that was my mindset when i first got into the overclocking thing. Then i noticed its just that useless...overkill ..so now i learned that overkill is pointless.

Only one way you will prove yourself that...with time...have fun meanwhile...:cheers:

Ya but ya gotta look at heat distribution as well :) If AMD put heat spreaders on their processors, they would (imo) run a lot cooler, since the heat would dissipate better over the heat spreader... Unfortunately, that'd stop the unlocking of their proc's :)
