No, its not a car, nor is it a woman, but it is faster, cooler, and cheaper... than my last CPU. A few years back, my Athlon 1200 cost in excess of $300 and peaked at a toasty 60 degrees C or thereabouts. Ya gotta love it when you can spend under $125, get a 1.9GHz processor, overclock it by 400MHz (so far. I haven't even started pushing this thing yet), and still have it run a Prime95 torture test at well under 55 degrees C.
