Maxwell, Re" Processor Improvements",

All the factors you've stated are correct but ask yourself this question: "For a given Instruction Set Architecture, in this case the x86, where have the maximum gains in performance come from as we've gone from generation to generation ?". I can tell this for sure, those who continue to insist on CPU architecture as the answer have never designed a processor before and are armchair quarterbacking. The ideal design is one where the chip architecture and logic partitioning is designed to extract the most performace out of your process at the lowest cost,

Best Wishes,
MJ
