Some more info for the HTPC'ers out there.

OLD SETUP: XP 2400 w/a FX5200 = 6700
NEW SETUP: XPM 2500 @ 2.0 w/a FX5200 = 7600

Btw, my XPM 2500 has gone up to 2.3 stable on air w/o any voltage bumps, but since this is not a gaming rig, I'm keeping it at btwn 2.0 and 2.2 - where the temps at load are a safe 44 degrees. Haven't tried any higher, but I'm sure it's capable of 2.5 if I add more juice!

I'm sure I'd be close to 10k w/my R8500, but sadly the FX5200 has much better TV-OUT and is dead silent. And also, the dualview of the FX5200 is perfect! YMMV!
