Re: "It was more the ELECTRON WIND etc that made me smile.
PS, most folks doing overclocking HAVE NOT been overclocking AMD chips. The VAST majority do of overclocking is done to Intel CPU's. So your leap to attempt to discredit ATHLON was pure PHUD again.
Or was it more electon wind from the Intelafalloons."

Kash, my comments were not directed toward standard Athlons but the supercooled Kryotech systems. I think they could face real reliability problems because of the issues pointed out in the Register's article. Although it sounds funny, electron wind is a fair way of describing it. No FUD intended.

RE: PS, most folks doing overclocking HAVE NOT been overclocking AMD chips

And that's why the only "offically" overclocked CPU on the recent cover of Computer Shopper was a PIII?
