A 0.18 micron 1.13 GHz Pentium III Coppermine had a Vcc of 1.75 volts and a maximum Icc of 22 amps. That is a "rough power estimate" of 38.5 watts. A 0.13 Micron Pentium III Tualatin has a Vcc of 1.45 volts and a maximum Icc of only 19.4 amps. That is a "rough power estimate" of 28 watts. If you can't tell the difference between 28 watts and 38.5 watts - then you are as stupid as a screen door on a submarine. Hint - it is a 27% POWER REDUCTION !! I think it's really going to be interesting to see how the Athlon4 compares to the Tualatin for mobile. Has anyone seen the form factor or average idle power for the Athlon??? With the much larger cache, the Tualatin P3's should stack up fairly well benchmark wise against the Athlon... It will be interesting to see if AMD's power management system is really that good compared to speedstep, or if it's just a smoke and mirror thing. I'm willing to bet that the Tualatin will vastly outshine the A4 in battery life...
