@Chipmunk888: Then could this statement by the newegg customer be true then??

i overclocked this processor to about 2.6 and idled at 13C and under full stress went up to about 20C. I think AMD means it when they say Quiet because you can't hear a thing coming from this processor.

@teH_tHirD: I was referring to the LE-1600.

whooah! 13c(idle) and 20c(full kick)?!!! thats awesome to know! and to thinks its already overclocked! =P

i have the LE1600 and Athlon64 X2 4000...i like them both...but when i transferred the LE1600 to my MSI mobo..unknown ang proc...i have to update the bios...pero kung ari sya sa akong Asrock Alive NF7G-HD720P R3.0 na kit-an ra dayon...but in my honest opinion...i'll go for the X2...not out of bias but the 2 cores come in handy sa akong apps mga multi-threaded.

mga bro please read the bottom part of the first post before mo mu-recommend to get an athlon x2 instead or that athlon x2 is better or something:

With such claims I think it maybe worth considering it my main rig, since:

- I'm looking to lower my electricity consumption.

- I don't really do any heavy multi-tasking. Actually my definition of multi-tasking consists of browsing the net, watching videos, and downloading torrents all at the same time. That's it.

- I'm liking a silent P.C. ryt now.

The problem is most people might be turned off by its being a single core, especially with Dual and Quad Core's becoming all the rage nowadays.

I have no personal experience with the LE, but not to shabby considering it can do 3.1Ghz at those low temps

Those are really low temps.. of course one would wonder how much the ambient temp is for a 13c idle temp .

I bought the LE -1100 (1.9ghz) for my mom's pc. I used the stock cooler and to my surprise, the temps werent as low as I thought.
45c Idle 50c load.. This is surprising given a 45w processor. Maybe the bundled heatsink was just crap or there must have been something wrong sa sensor. (I checked both the bios and Speedfan)
