As a general rule, would an Athlon XP 1800 run cooler than an Athlon T-Bird 1.4 GHz (assuming the same case setup, HSF and such)? My T-bird is running quite toastily, and I was wondering if upgrading to a new cpu might lower the temp.
Also, while putting on my heatsink, I ended up rounder one of the corners of my CPU's core... would that make it run hotter?
Thanks.
