One word about CPU.
Athlon II X4 630 @ 1.15 volts, 4x2.8Ghz, with automatically controlled stock fan@1000rpm, performing gentoo "emerge -euDN world" - recompilation of everything(790 packages) with new CFLAGS(for new K10 hardware), 775 minutes of compilation with -j5(5 threads).
34C
System temp 38C
Outdoor - 24C
This CPU is awesome. No l3 cache does not only mean less perfomance in case of if-cache-hit, but also means less price, less heat and less power consumption. I think dualchannel 2x2Gb DDR3-1600 can compensate this.
Undervolting is a must though. My had 1.4v stock, some other guys reported to have 1.2v stock. Dunno why.
