Sorry to see you ditched the koolance case..

It's kool.

I mean Rip, if you got the dough, by all means invest to a Vapochill case. It's quiet as a whisper and will keep your CPU temperature below freezing point permanently.

That means your system will work faster and more reliably even if you dont overclock it.

Bloom,

Is the 2700+ going to run a 400mhz FSB?

Current Athlons use a 266 MHz FSB and have 256kB of L2 cache. The 2700+ and up will use a 333 MHz FSB. The 2700+ is supposed to be announced October 7th running at a true clockspeed of 2166 MHz. After that future Athlon XPs are supposed to shift to the Barton core with 512 kB of L2 cache and a 333 MHz FSB.
