I am running a 6 core AMD Phenom that is a 3.2 ghz CPU. Tim mentioned that AMD's "cool and quiet" is not so good for PowerSDR. It's installed and I do see my CPU cycle down to 1600 MHz at times but it's usually and 2400Mhz or 3200MHz. So far I haven't noticed any ill effects from this. It might be the "more CPUs is better effect" my CPU load is never much more than 7% with PowerSDR, WSPR 2.0 and Xchat2 running. I wonder what experience others on the Flex reflector have had. As it's working as is I am leaving it that way until it causes trouble.
I already have thermal issues in the shack at times. Running the CPU full bore all the time might make me sweat more LOL.
