The new Athlon X2 BE-2350 dual core CPU.  It's a 45W energy efficient 
chip.  I was reading a review of it earlier and on a motherboard with 
ATI/AMD 690 chipset (with onboard graphics) it only uses about 59W.

E-Buyer are doing the slightly slower BE-2300 chip for about £50 inc 
VAT.  After reading the review I've decided I want one.  The BE-2350 
supposedly even overclocks to 3GHz per core although it didn't say what 
the consumption was on that.
