RE: Cool and Quiet.

It OUGHT to be a major selling point of the AMD CPUs. I disagree that it IS a major selling point. I think C&Q (or PowerNow, or whatever they call it this year...) is a perfect example of how AMD falls on their face in the PR and marketing departments.

How long was it before there was a Tier I OEM that had a motherboard in which you could enable it? Far too long.

C&Q is the best kept secret on the store shelf.
