Re: "There are certain things that are self evident. One is that it is a lot easier to guarantee that the CPU will not exceed 90C as is the case with Athlon than 80C, as is the case with Piii 866 MHz." So I asked you twice to backup your claim that Intel's 1GHz CuMines are unreliable and you have no facts to present, only opinions. That's fine, you're entitled to your opinion but it's clear you have nothing else to present. EP

Joe, as I pointed out earlier today, Dell and HP are selling 2-way 1 GHz PIII servers right now. Are they stupid? Tony

Jozef, But it get's a lot harder, and it requires extreme measures that overclockers use to get to 60C. Do you dispute this fact? Do we need to go to college physics to prove this fact? Yes, you do. It depends on the power dissipation of the particular type and stepping of the processor, the thermal resistance of the particular package type, the thermal resistance of the contact between the processor package and heat sink, the thermal resistance of the heat sink (which depends on the airflow) and it depends on the temperature of the air flowing over the heat sink.
