Tipped off by a post over in the articles forum (in fact, I originally POSTED it there...:|), there's a post regarding the difference between the S370 GORB & the Socket A/462 GORB. Basically they look the same, except for the mounting mechanism & the fan speed. The S462 fan runs at 5500 RPM, as opposed to the S370's 4500. It seems to me that the S462 version would be the one to have, especially if it would mount successfully on a FC-PGA slocket. Looking at the graphs, it appears that at a 30W dissipation, we could expect a pretty significant temperature drop, simply due to the increased air flow.
Anyone know where we can buy these? If they are being discontinued, I want to grab one (at least!) before they all go away.
