I obsess over 605's - and from experience, a full 040 in one does run a little warmer, but they work fine without a heatsink - a 605 overclocked to 33Mhz with a full 040 however, does generate an uncomfortable amount... as in the 040 burns fingers :). That's when I put a heatsink on mine. The socket in 605's does have the clips on the side which allow a heatsink to fit, if you'd feel more comfortable with one dana -- unnaturally hosted on a Q605, http://www.danamania.com/ -- -- Quadlist is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
