Retail AMD Phenom II X4 (Deneb) OC spotted

It doesnt "go" anywhere. It stays within the circuit. The heat that people are seeing is mostly related to electromigration, ie current jumping from more than one level/circuit of the chip which causes resistance and that resistance is turned into heat

That is why i7s are not too bad at lower frequencies but get RED hot at higher ones. Its the same thing that got Netburst into trouble a couple years ago

You didnt answer the question. You simply sprew out jibberish.

And electromigration would result in radiation and material degeneration. It would actually reduce heat. Electromigration ionizes and physically moves particles out of circuits. Hence lost of kinetic energy instead of heat. And then learn the law of conservation of energy.

In physics, the law of conservation of energy states that the total amount of energy in an isolated system remains constant. A consequence of this law is that energy cannot be created or destroyed. The only thing that can happen with energy in an isolated system is that it can change form, that is to say for instance kinetic energy can become thermal energy. Another consequence of this law is that perpetual motion machines can only work if they deliver no energy to their surroundings, and that devices that produce more energy than is put into them are impossible.

The power cant stay within the circuit. You keep on pumping power in. A CPU is not some battery you can charge.

In short. SOI aint above the law.
