Intel talks about "lower cost thermal solutions" being allowed by the implementation of Thermal Monitor. What do they mean "lower cost"? Lower than what? Lower than higher cost systems?

It's really amazing to see how insightful you can be. Why us mere mortal would never have been able to figure that one out...

TWY, Re: one that is designed to the maximum, theoretical processor power envelope.

Probably one of those japanese liquid nitrogen overclocking jobs. :)

Re: What is your GUESS of what a thermal design system would look like that would not require the use of Thermal Monitor?

Design document for avoiding clock throttling on the new dual processor P4:

Cooling towers fall into two main sub-divisions: natural draft and mechanical draft. Natural draft designs use very large concrete chimneys to introduce air through the media. Due to the tremendous size of these towers (500 ft high and 400 ft in diameter at the base) they are generally used for water flowrates above 200,000 gal/min. Usually these types of towers are only used by utility power stations and Intel Pentium 4 systems in the United States. Mechanical draft cooling towers are much more widely used. These towers utilize large fans to force air through circulated water. The water falls downward over fill surfaces which help increase the contact time between the water and the air. This helps maximize heat transfer between the two.
