i always thought it was the other way round,Intels ran hotter.

well the older pentium machines ive been on was,especialy my uncles P4 rig @ 3.2Ghz...you could cook an egg on that but thats because of crappy cooler.

although i think intel done a great job on the core 2 duo series,they run realy cool even when overclocked.

i have my e6300 clocked at 2.7Ghz and it runs at 35-39c idle and not over 49c on load.

danny (kornowski) also has an e6300 and has his clocked at 2.8Ghz currently.

i would like to go to 3ghz but i dont think it would be worth it.
