Is anyone doing this? I'm getting real excited about the mobile Athlon XP
2400+ that consumes only 45 watts. Making it much easier to cool and hear
it's overclockable. Runs cool for the silent PC crowd too.

Thanks
Fens

Check around. The bios won't recognize and operate it properly. This has
been covered already.

Sounds like you just described a P4...

???

a p4 running AT 800mhz maybee..
Lets not forget that the HT chips have a higher power consumption than the
"equal" (term not strict in usage) Athlons..

The PentM processors on the other hand could be something he's describing..
Give Credit where it's due.. Not where it's inflated by misinformation..

If I was wanting a "Low Power" "High Processing" solution then I would wait
for the a64m's to come out as the grapevine says they are looking to be
great little beast (and the release should be soon for us home guys)

Let's not forget that, in general, most P4s are very easy to overclock even
with the standard cooler and they tend to run cool. Even putting the paste
and heatsink on is easier.

I sincerely do not know what you mean by the above statement. Does it have
anything at all to do wityh homebuilt PCs or was it just an obscure attempt
at a dig?

I'm running a 2400+ XP-M (1800 MHz Barton) in my NF7-S, no probs at all...
Currently it is running 2325 MHz, 11x211 MHz @ 1,7V.
It runs 9x200 = 1800 MHz (default) @ 1,35 V (and still fast enough for most
things),
10x200 = 2000 MHz @ 1,4 V (even more interesting!)

Stepping code:
AXMD2400FJQ4C 9760572260032

IQXEA 0327SPMW



AXHD = AMD Athlon XP-M 0,13µ

2400 = 2400+ rating

F = OPGA

J = 1.35V

Q = 100 C

4 = 512 KB

C = 266 MHz

There is a Mini-ITX P4-M & P-M motherboard due soon, but the
problem is getting hold of the CPUs. P4-M is not hard re Ebay,
but P-M is actually near impossible from Intel, hard on Ebay.

P-M is a very fast CPU, but just 22W - Tualatin1.2-Celeron were 32W.

Will they do the same for Athlon-M? Probably.

There are about 3 company sthat do the P-M chips in the mini-itx boards..
and most of them will sell it as a b undle WHEN REQUESTED. Mini-ITX
probably isnt the way to go for most users however as the size isnt "that
much" smaller than the smallest ATX form factor AND you can go with a more
reliable company for those more common formfactors. I would doubt the P4M
would hold anything up to say the A64M or even the high end AXPM's
