AMD 5200+(89W, 90nm, but 2x 1024 L2 cache) or AMD 4850e(only 45W, 65nm and only 2x 512 L2 cache)

tnx

Well, I did manage to get my 4850e bumped from 2.5Ghz to 2.8Ghz with no volt increase. Benchmarks put it (at stock speeds) around the 5200+. It runs fairly cool.. mine with a decent after-market cooler was sitting around 24C idle, and 32C at load. 23-24C is my room temp.

It's a great chip, but yeah.. I'd snag a 5400 Black Edition, or wait for the next round of chips.
