<Considering who's posting this, it is almost certainly wrong. > Well, Petz, I gave you your chance and I guess I was right in the first place. You are wrong and the facts speak for themselves. Intel rates their PII at 11.8A * 2.8V = 33 Watts As you pointed out. However: AMD rates their K6 at 30.2 W, but when you run the numbers from their own datasheet you get 32.175 Watts which is almost identical to the PII power consumption. amd.com These are max ratings for both. Thanks for keeping a perfect record. EP
