i think wat ur friend was reffering to the older version
Athlon XP
known for their overheating issues and all
but the current crop
Athlon64's run cooler than their intel counterparts
and are the best in the market
Hey athlon XP processors are also cooler man.
That guy might be referring to the old AMD K6 processors.They were hotter due to poor CPU fan provided by AMD.
where as at that time Intel CPU fan was much more compact in design and could cool the processor better.Thats why in the olden days people dint prefer AMD.
But now actually AMD CPUs are much cooler to Intel CPUs.
