>> Looking at parameters of the 65nm chips (as far as power consumption), it is better than 90nm process.

Intel's power reduction for D830 compared to D930 was 130 Watt to 95. With adding 2 MB to the D930 cache. Surprisingly, the 95 W is listed for up to the D960 at 3.6 GHz.

I believe AMD's was 89 W to 65, while keeping cache the same, and unable to get up to upper several speed bins. Whereas Intel missed only one bin.

So AMD definitely did not get as much benefit from the 90nm->65nm transition, as Intel did. Even for the (so far) limited set of products that it was able to transition.
