???? Why? This is completely against anything I have ever heard. HD (heavy duty)
cores are not a good idea if you already have cooling issues, as they are
designed to offer a more physically robust core, often at the expense of cooling
capacity. But to suggest someone stay away from a high efficiency core sounds
downright stupid. I'd sure want to know the rationale on that one.
