Sure wish one of those utilities would monitor the motherboard and sensors I
have. Ah ha! That one lists the i815EM! Finally... Thanks so much for
posting that URL!
Seems I read someplace that AMD's are run hotter than equivalent clockrate
Intel's, the Athlon anyway. Same for Duron? I couldn't say, not sure
anyhow. My DELL notebook is a PIII at 800Mhz and I suspect it isn't wholly
stable, but a well-fanned tower case must be very different.
