Draws too much power

Installed on Gigabyte F2A68HM board, no problem. Table tested with memory kit and graphics card. CPU runs to 70 degrees C doing nothing more than sitting in BIOS with stock cooler. You can improve heatsink, but the MoBo VRMs run too hot as well, heatsink does nothing for them. There is a BIOS setting to set max TDP to either 65 or 45 watts - selected 65 watts and CPU temp settled in at 55 degrees C and VRMs became tolerable. Excellent potential for performance equalling that of an Ivy Bridge Core-i5 S variant, but not if you have to ease back performance for reliability concerns. Seriously cheap, I don't expect AMD to keep making them - and the family needs improvement on the thermal front anyway.
