no no no, you are getting it all wrong, the only reason my processors stay cooler than others is because 1) they are low voltage (1.83v for 1051) 2) there are two of them, so for most loads it is spread over two processors (SMP)(Symetrical Multiprocessing). So for just normal computer useage (Internet Explorer, Pine, whatever) the load is shared and the processors stay cool. My max temp playing Quake3 or Homeworld is only 98F on each processor while OCed from 933 to 1051 using Alpha PEP66s with 60x60x10mm Deltas
