Bill, thank you for the detailed and informative reply concerning Athlon mobo design. The Lawrence Livermore link should provide many hours of fascinating reading.

Bill, per AMD's specs, it seems that I was right on about not using cheapo P/S units with Athlon CPUs. One can only wonder if AMD has calculated what will happen when a couple of 7,200+RPM drives perform seek operations at the same time that their CPU goes into orbit.
