I want to get a P4 3.4 Prescott that specs out at Thermal Spec 73.2C Thermal Guideline 103W
I currently have a P4 3.0 800FSB 512 that specs out at Thermal Spec 70C Thermal Guideline 81.9W It is using a very nice, and very quiet a P4 Spire cooler specs Thermal Resistance = .33 C/W
The case is a large extended case with very good cooling.
the Spire is rated up to 3.4 but not particularly for the Prescott... for earlier P4s like my model which were a little cooler models.
I don't understand how the Thermal Resistance spec works. Will I be able to use a 3.4 Prescott with my Spire cooler?
thanks
