Still Too Hot To Handle? . . .

The reviews were quite different, and done under different circumstances.

Nonetheless, they had one thing in common: the same weather forecasts: in the seventies. Seventies Celsius.

It's eyebrow-raising to see a reviewer feeling pretty much proud of himself (and having reason to be) keeping the CPU temperature down to 75°C (that's 167° for you Fahrenheit types). It's harrowing to know that this is a considerable improvement over Prescott, but performance isn't better (or even sometimes quite as good, especially on the dual core side) than a more tepid AMD chip.
