[Bioclusters] Dual Athlons

[Joel Dudley]

hmmmm, 
 I don't know about your situation, but if heat was a
problem you could run your own test with a cheap
thermocouple. You might use a program like netsaint to
monitor the heat over a period of time. I know that
www.anandtech.com runs all of their stuff on dual
athlons. Lemme know what you find out!
