Scubria re <<Don't be too quick in your judgement about Palomino and the heat sink. Athlon has not been through any power reduction until now, and there may be other packaging factors to consider as well.>>

This is one of those time that I am not sure if you are being sarcastic or serious.

If your are serious, you need to look up some info on power limits in order to use just a sink. Do you suppose AMD all sudden figured out a magical way to reduce power by 80%? :)

SCUMbria - Re: "Athlon has not been through any power reduction until now,"

Hmmmm..

Anybody notice that the number of vendors selling 1.2 Gig ThumperBurners on Pricewatch.com is dropping off lately - only 7 today - and NONE with any parts in stock.

Meanwhile, there are now 15 vendors - with stock - selling 1.5 Ghz Pentium 4's.
