The hottest 3.2ghz P4 had a TDP of 84 watts, the FX-8150 has a TDP of 125 watts. What this means is that under load an 8150 will generate about 50% more heat than the P4.
You cannot seriously compare a old P4 TDP with that a FX 8150 - that would be like me trying to do the same with a 386 DX 40 - to even try and draw a comparison you would need to at least take the cores into account, so lets be generous and only x4 that gives your P4 a equivalent TDP of at least 340 - They also had a fan unit with 175 gram Copper core and 180 grams Aluminum... and they still ran HOT - BTW the first P4 referred to was Soc 478 - the same goes for the P4 640 (Soc 775) in fact that is the one that needed a case fan and funnel or else... but what did people hear, AMD chips run hot
