Thumbs up for PIII

[julianf]

Now i had my two 550 PIII working HARD in the studio for the last week. temp has been around 65dC from 10am to 11pm- they work fine, no hangs, stall or anything just a little crackle when i try to bring the latency down to 6ms... I am going to get watercooling very soon (the only way, the room is 28dC and the load is 80% most of the time) Well, i though i would applaude PIII for theyre stunning work.

I think any CPU can run for six weeks under 100% load..... at least it should.

yeah sure, but transisters develope most heat at around 20% & 80% loads..
but at 65degrees Celsius? six weeks?

edit: mot - moSt
