I've been using an Athlon XP 1800 processor with an Asus V333 motherboard (VIA KT333 chipset) and 256MB ram, exclusively for linux, for over a year. I've kept the machine on for days at a stretch (in an un-airconditioned room with ambient temperature variations of 20-34 degrees centigrade) and have had no problems with overheating, even with sustained cpu loads of 2-3. People have reported problems with Athlon processor overheating, but in most instances it occurs only when you use a heatsink that is not recommended for the Athlon processor.
