Paul - RE: "Any idea why Intel's Coppermine dissipates ONLY HALF that amount - 23 watts - at 733 MHz ?" Actually, no. At .18, the Athlon's die size is about equal to Cumine's, so it can't be that. And both run at about the same core voltage. It can't be amount of on-chip cache because Cumine has more than the Athlon. The Athlon can do more per clock, but I wouldn't know if that makes any difference. Mobile K6-2s have always used more power than mobile PIIs even though the K6-2 is much smaller, so maybe it is a result of each company's process. So what is it - a result of the Athlon's design or process differences, or a combination of both?
