hm.
the 2200 is probably a tbred b core, which means it naturally runs a LOT cooler then your 1700.
i.e. my old athlon 1800 used to hover around 55 deg C (from what i remember). the new athlon 1800 i have (with a tbred core) hovers at around 30-35 deg C.
[ edit ]: i should also add that the new 1800 i have runs at that temp OC'ed to speeds equivalent of a 2100 or a 2200, i forget.
both values are with stock cooling, one case fan on, and with the same case.
