My K6-2 450 used to lock up on me during heavy cpu usage when I had just the
case fan and a tiny little fan on the chip.
I bought a bigger fan + heatsink combo, and attached it to the processor with
some thermal compount and now it runs really nice and cool.
I think the heatsink + thermal compound are the real miracle workers here. :)
I believe my total cost was around $20.
FCPGA is a socket system, right?
