There's definitely no problem at all with the mobo's support. And
power usage, as you rightly say, will be handled by onboard
electronics.

OTOH my concern is the power consumption and question of what is
drawn from the PSU: does the Duron 1800 draw its extra current at
12V (or what volatge) when compared to the Duron 1600?
