palomino have thermal protection?

i was just wondering if anybody knew if the palomino had thermal protection.

yes it is spose to have thermo protection

"I don't think AMD can afford to put thermo protection on their chips, they would lose the "2 for 1 sales" advantage!"

Is this really necessary? If you have any real information one way or the other we would love to hear it but stop the amd hate remarks already..

i herd that it will be 30% cooler then the tbird is this true? i looked at aces and didnt see anything about that

Tell them I said wussup? plz. Are you guys sure the new palmino's would work on a 760 based MoBo?

Sh!t Happens.

>I sure hope it doesn't. Automation usually means 'limitation'.

Excuse me?
Please explain how thermal protection would be a limitation?


In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice.
In practice, there is.

Even IF it does have a cooler running core (rumored but unconfirmed), I don't believe a 1.53GHz Palomino will run much cooler than a 1.33GHz T-bird.

I wouldn't expect heat dissapation characteristics to change dramatically on AMD CPUs until the .13 micron Thoroughbred.

aceshardware is not AMD.

Here is the URL of Tom's latest take of the Palomino core.

Without Evil, there can be no Good. Therefore, without an Intel, there can be no AMD.

Not (that wouldn't be responsible reporting)! They got that info. during an interview with AMD's Head of Public Relations in Central Europe.

FYI, here's a recent release from The Register...

<i>AMD Palomino to debut at 1.53GHz
By: Tony Smith
Posted: 09/04/2001 at 11:18 GMT

AMD's Thunderbird Athlon core will be taken to 1.5GHz over the coming months, with a part at that speed and another at 1.4GHz to fill the gap between the top-of-the-line chip and the current 1.3GHz Athlon.

That's what German site Planet3DNow! has claimed, according to an English translation over at the VR-Zone.

With Intel's P4 already running at 1.5GHz and the 1.7GHz part coming in a couple of weeks, it's no wonder AMD wants to accelerate its own efforts.

The arrival of the 1.5GHz Thunderbird Athlon paves the way for 1.53GHz, 1.6GHz and 1.67GHz parts based on the Palomino core, which was due to have shipped by now, but now won't arrive until Q3.

Morgan - the new Duron core - is set to ship in the same timeframe, at 950MHz.

Palomino will support enhanced branch-prediction unit and hardware-prefetching, the site reports. It estimates the die size at 150mm2, containing 46 million transistors. Palomino will be fabbed in Dresden and copper interconnect technology. Morgan will be fabbed in Austin, but use aluminium interconnects. Support for Intel's SSE2 instructions haven't made the cut, apparently. ®</i>

You are the stupidest person I have ever seen. If you would have READ THE WORDS, and yes that's what those are, you're supposed to read them, you would UNDERSTAND (if that's possible in the first place).

hahaha,lol @ you. I don't need to read the words, all I see is a burnt cpu, doa.

bwabababwahahahahaha!

"AMD...you are the weakest link, good bye!"

The palomino has been shown running without any fan at all just a heatsink, hows that for themal protection????

A little bit of knowledge is a dangerous thing!

Being on demo doesn't count pencil dick. Geese loser AMD is scrambling and they are going find that Intel isn't to be [-peep-] with.

If it runs without a heatsink, then there's some limiting going on. So if you're not cooling it enough, you'll never get the full power of the processor (which was the point of my last post).

*sigh*

Yeah, I read that article.

Whether or not it's true, if you can run the proc. without a heatsink, there's a catch in there somewhere. A multimeter hooked up to the 3.3v and 5v rails would answer that question in a couple of seconds.....

So what's the power comsumption/radiation from the chip? 40watts? 30watts?

Ncogneto:
Would you please tell me where you got that '20-25 watts' from (are you talking about about the Palomino)? Last I read, the 1.53MHz Palomino will consume just about the same power as a 1.33MHz T-bird. So if you have a link to confirm your statement, I would really like to see it!

65 watts in a notebook? come on get real!

A little bit of knowledge is a dangerous thing!

Well, *MY* CPU is a BIGGER and BETTER one than yours! If you dont like it, I'll get my daddy on you...
