wbmw, re: northbridge size

The NB in my TBird system is more than twice the CPU die size. Being a little curious I looked up the i845 chipset details and the chips are about 150 and 200 mm^2. In glancing at the thermal solutions it was interesting that from 25-30% of the TDP is dissipated through the board (depending on degree of air flow over heatsink).
