These things are amazing. I upgraded to an Athlon XP and put my tually into a computer for my mom. I couldn't find a decent heatsink and all I had was a small pentium 1 heatsink.
This is a 1/2inch tall cooler master heatsink with a 5cfm fan on it. I decided well you know this cpu can take temps in the 50s if it isnt overclocked so I may be able to pull this off if I lower the voltage.
I clock it back to 1.1ghz and put the voltage at 1.275
So I apply generic Radio Shack paste and check it out. While running folding after 10 minutes the temperature is...get this.....37C. This is amazing. This is with no airflow just a pentium heatsink fan.
For those who want to passive cool and dont want some crappy C3 which doesnt have the power to play a divx movie properly get a tualatin and undervolt it. with a big passive heatsink this would still be fine.
