Quote from Insanetek: "The results speak for themselves. The S-PAL8055 simply could not beat out the SP97. The all copper heatpipes of the SP97 bested the aluminum pins by a good 5°C. "

quote:"At default Athlon XP speed and core voltage the new S-PAL trails by 4-5 °C. You have to keep in mind that the SP-97 is the best AXP heatsink around at the time of writing. So the performance of the new Alpha can hardly be called "bad", just not as good as the SP-97"
