THE WATSONYOUTH Re <<Did you see the heat sink and fan? It may give an indication on how close to the edge they are at 650MHz.>> I have been looking at those sinks for a while. Not close to edge at all, well within industry practices. Mani

Watson - RE: "Any word yet as to power levels for the 600MHz and 650MHz Athlon parts? Did you see the heat sink and fan? It may give an indication on how close to the edge they are at 650MHz." Ace's has a list of max. power dissipation - aceshardware.com And AGN has a close up pic of the Athlon's big heatsink - media.agn.com taken from the review - agnhardware.com Hope this helps. Post your thoughts. Your posts are always good, I declare you the new "Expert" of the thread!
