Is the Mobile XP 2500 the best value processor?!?!

Are you kidding! Me worry about dust in my case with a fan that blasts air in there? My only worry is my stupid cat sticking his head in my case and brushing against my tornado fan with no grill guard. A burnt cat with head pieces all over my case sounds funny but too costly to be a form of entertainment.

your sick. :smile:


Aren't the bartons rated for 85 degrees C and rumors the mobile can handle more. A real Core temp in the 50's should not be a problem. I'd be worried about being up in the 50's under the socket as that varies mobo to mobo. Does your heatsink get too hot to hold?

Oh yeah it can if I dont use my tornado fan. I also though that the mobile chip can take double that wattage heat than the avg desktop chip but my system would crash in various games like COD if the Temp breaks over the 60c line. I just think that the A7N8X mobo is playin me and I will try this chip out when I finish moving.
