Dan, Re: And what is this stuff you keep posting about Intel "including the better cooling solution?"

When the Pentium 4 was first announced, there was a big to-do about the cooling solution, and Intel had apparently put forth a lot of research and effort in providing adequate thermal management. At the time, Intel's heat sink seemed very robust, but since then other 3rd parties have caught up, and now offer similar solutions. Check out some of the early Pentium 4 reviews, and you'll see more in-depth accounts, that describe the large copper base, and circular fin arrangement. I don't know if all OEMs are using this solution, but I had assumed they would; else, why would Intel have gone through the trouble?
