I personally do NOT use the 68040 processor. They tend to over-heat and are not reliable enough for me.
You really can't help exposing your shocking ignorance of virtually anything, can you? Simply sticking remarks in upper case does not make them true and does not mean you are speaking with any authority.
I have used a 68040 processor in my amiga since 1996 and never experienced any thermal instability. I now have 2 68040 powered systems and both run cool.
As for the '68050', :roflmao:
Also, how can you complain that an 040 runs too hot when you have a Pentium IV based PC?
Where's the emoticon for 'p*ss myself laughing' ?
Finally, in my experience, the 50MHz 68060 runs cooler than the 50MHz 68030. No doubt the static 3.3v design helps there. As an electronics
expert, surely you know that?
There is also a 3.3v 68040, it just hasn't been used in any amiga processor expansion to my knowledge.
