the cache specs would be nice, but bleedin hell... slap one under a TEC and it wouldnt even come close to half the TDelta value of the peltier itself... lol... you could double its thermal output and still retain subzero temperatures under full load.. thats pretty damn sick

OMG AMD is once again going into Duron era where I got a Duron 1.6 for $25. Then later Got Sempron 2500 Socket A brand new Retail for $5. Lately I got a AM2 A643200 brand new Retail for $20. That thing doesn't go above 35C under load no matter what I do (with default heatsink and cooler). The CPU is at 2.6 @1.3V on a ECS board. Don't know what version of CPU this is. But it runs cool cool. I am measuring the core temps. I will wait for those dual core CPUs to go down in price and put this thing into the Media PC.:D

Wow, very affordable. I wonder how much these single core CPU's can be overclocked.

Too bad we can't buy them at that listed price. We would be lucky to get them at double that price.
