Cooling AthlonXP quick'n'dirty Reference Guide

Just found a handy chart which I thought would be good for reference for anyone trying to work out their cooling requirements/power consumption for standard clock-rate XPs.

(Posted it in Extreme Cooling as I figured people here would make the most use of it. )

Code:

OPN Example: A X D A 2200 D K V 3 C
AX, AXDA Family/Architecture AX/AXDA=AMD Athlon XP Processor with Quantispeed Architecture
2200 Model Number 2200+ operates at 1800MHz (see list below)
D Package Type D=OPGA socket (organic)
M, K Operating Voltage M=1.75V, K=1.65V
T, V Die Temperature T=90C, V=85C
3 Size of L2 cache 3=256KB
C FSB C=266MHz

  CPU OPN                 Product              Process    Core        Bus     Nominal   Max Current Maximum  Die

Hope it's of use.

 

........interesting.....2200+ will pop its top at 85c........interesting..........

 

Im thinking of getting the XP2200+ is it as good as they say it is ?

 

I think you better wait until the 2400+ and 2600+ arrives, even if you don't want to buy these. Prices will drop, and if you want to spend a bit more, the 2600+ is the one to go with it's high OC-capabilities and better performance.

 

When are they out then?

 

month maybe....possibly 2.....thats usualy the norm when reviews start comin.....

 

C00l

 

yeah, THG ( http://www.tomshardware.com ) already has a review of it, you might check it out


edit: they were able to overclock it to a 3400+ if I recall correctly, with a medium watercoolingsystem! And it was stable!

But I'm just gonna wait with buying a new athlon till the 333FSB-procs come out, yeah, those will be some fast pieces of silicon...
