<Let's see what Tom says!>

From Tom's Athlon review:

Has Pentium III 600 Got Serious Temperature Problems?

There's even more to say about PIII 600. It's strange enough that Intel is using the old overclocker-trick of raising the core-voltage a little bit. PIII 600 is using 2.05 instead of the 2.00 V used by PIII 450 - 550, which makes you wonder since when 0.05 V are supposed to make the big difference. Well, a lot of people are currently reporting problems with heat-induced crashes of PIII 600 and you start wondering if the release of PIII 600 was some kind of desperate move of Intel to save it from major embarrassment. The opposite could be the case now, if it indeed turns out that Pentium III 600 is not running really stable. The Pentium III 600 processors in our lab have failed several times too at 600 MHz, and this although our systems are always open. We'll have a close look into this issue right after the Athlon-review.
