Odd are it'll run pretty much the same as a San Diego 3700+ 1Mb (2.2Ghz)
unit but generate less heat and use less power. May o/c higher. Why you'd
want a single core now when an dual core AM2 socket X2 4000+ Brisbane costs
the same or less ($50) and will o/c as much or more is beyond me.

The 1600 and 1620 go VERY well.
Expect 3.3~3.8GHz with a minimal voltage bump.

That thread is showing a 30C temp for the CPU at 1.44V / 3300Mhz and 26C for
the m/b chipset. It's being run on a top of the line board with a a custom
watercooling rig with triple internal radiators. It errored at just over
3.4Ghz. Which is exactly what I'd expect any decent AMD single or dual core
to do given the same setup. An X2 is still afar better budget choice.
