...so here are a few follow-up recomendations.

As we all know, the new Athlon XP Thoroughbred features a die shrink, higher clockspeeds and
produces power heat per square mm then did Thunderbird or Palomino, so an all-copper heatsink is definitly recommended.

They should have included a heat spreader on the chips. Copper one. Would prevent core cracking and assist with cooling especially with the shitty aluminium stock heatsinks.

The upcoming Clawhammer/Sledgehammer products will basically rip Athlon XP and Petnium 4 a new asshole. If you need to get a new system RIGHT now (money is burning a hole in your pocket) then yeah.. I'd go with an Epox 8k3a (can do up to 2.2v, superb overclocking) and a 2200+..
