divx compression is about the only thing I do that I need this much power for, and, frankly, I don't care that much about divx compression to blow $500 on an upgrade like I did. I certainly didn't need to overclock my Duron 650, or tear it out and throw in a watercooled Athlon

Part of the reason was that mystical "1000MHz" that was just out of my reach with the Duron but just mean oh so much! (best POST with the Duron was at 978 but fastest stable was 850MHz)
When people as what I do on my PC that I need a watercooled 1.3GHz, I tell them
"I don't *need* to watercool my PC, I just love to tinker! I enjoy stuff like that
"
