Hi All!

No, I don't have a problem with an overheating processor, just couldn't 
think of a better title that fit. :)

Saw this in the MythTV Users Forum this morning:

  When Intel chips overheat, the ramp down on CPU speeds, when AMD 
  overheats, they cut power.
  
Figured I'd post in case that bit of trivia helps someone.  ...The AMD 
CPU I have here overheated to the point it shut itself off even with the
"AMD approved heatsink and fan" sitting on it.  Solved by installing a 
CoolerMaster Hyper 212 EVO.  Found out after the Cryorig CR-H7A is rated
better and about a $5 difference in price.
