Now let's consider an Athlon 2200+. Mine runs at 43C idle, 46.5C when benchmarking - with an ultra quiet, 3500RPM fan on the heatsink. But, even though the 2200+ has the lowest speced thermal range of the Athlons, it is still comfortable running 15C warmer than a P4. So I have 10C more headroom (18 degrees Fahrenheit) than a P4 system. AMD's boxed CPUs come with 6000RPM fans so they would run cooler than my system (but wouldn't be as whisper quiet). Looks like you wasted your good money on a new Athlon only so that you could post meaningless data on SI that nobody gives a monkey's ass about - nor does anybody believe it. Instead, you post outright lies about Intel's Pentium 4 and ignore the truth when it is documented by third party testers. You are pathetic, Dan3. You and AMD deserve each other.
