<< dont forget, peltiers and watercoolers etc are recyclable as well, after this CPU becomes obsolete, you can just use it on the next one or sell it. >>
Yes but the cost of purchasing a peltier itself would be less than the total cost of operating it after a certain amount of time.
Right on man. Great post. People need to accept the fact that underachievement in the black and hispanic communities has nothing to do with racism. It has everything to do with the hispanic and black culture. Neither culture values education. Look at Asians. They are a minority yet they are much...
No one on Anandtech is going to win. If one of you did win and you posted saying you won no one would believe you anyways.

<< Fuzzy math.
You want to divide 39 by .0064 ..not 0.64. 0.64 would be 64 cents, not .64 cents. Big difference. That means it takes 6093.75 hours to make up the difference. That's 253 days.
Using your math, the peltier uses $461 worth of electricity in one month! That's four times what...

<< I bought a duron 600 and can run it at 900+ with just the retail heat sink/fan. >>
That's cool you probably saved some money. I am talking about the overclocking that I hear a lot of people do which requires extra fans/pelitiers/waterblocks though.
I have talked to people on madonion.com, hardforums.com and seen web sites such as this one that claim that you can save money by overclocking.

I was about to ask a similar question. Which of the DDR boards has phase 3 power support supposedly required for the Palominos?

I was looking at the Iwill KA266-R and was thinking about buying it but I am not sure if it is a good DDR board. Is the KA266-R a good DDR board and if not what is?
Can someone tell me what they think is better? Windows XP or Windows 2000? What are the pros and cons of each? I heard that Win2K is better because WinXP is bizarre.
