That's the big reason my newest box uses the low power Xeon 5420 (just 50 watts each), and the mobo allows the lower power/less heat NON FB-DIMM memory.

Although it wasn't intended for folding, only, it's good to go when available, even in 90 degree + (Fahrenheit) temps. When it gets over 97F, then it's just too uncomfortable to fold anything, since I get a lot of afternoon sun.

While it's folding, you can put your hand right on the standard heatsink and feel no heat, at all. That was a complete surprise to me.
