[QUOTE="jdiffend, post: 24805, member: 10910"] It looks to me like heat was the major issue for Tom's Hardware. I don't think they even mentioned power once... which makes me wonder if they even considered it. A major oversight if you ask me. If you look at this 1992 PDF from the AMD website you'll see the sample system power requirements are about 200W. And that's all older/slower components that require less power. The CPU alone takes almost half the required power.

If you are over 200W it could be a problem. [/QUOTE]
