Now go ahead and flame me for buying the processor and call me a noob and such. I do not fear a pack of nerds turning on me. :lol:

Hey, it's your money... just don't blame us when your house burns down.

Actually it is running much cooler that my P4 prescott. I clocked it to 2.8 and left the voltage alone. It seems to Idle around 40c and I saw it get up to 55c running 2 primes. I am pretty happy, at $60 it will allow my son to play any game that comes out in the next year or so, unlike the Prescott would have.

My C2D changes multiplier, Freq, and voltage for power saving. Anyone know what the 805D should be doing, because all I have noticed was the voltage changing.
