I bought the 2500+ last week, it o/c's to 190fsb for 2.1ghz on the MSI board before the agp/pci clocks get too high and the vid card starts going flaky. Full load temps are 100F with fan at 7k rpm and 107F at 4800 rpm. Heatsink is a Vantek 6040H copper cooler with 7k fan (I have a rheostat to turn it down, but I'm keeping that). After buying the processor, I've decided to just go ahead and get an athlon64 setup instead.
$120 for all 3.
