Cringe - re: "K6-2 450 and K6-3 will require 2.3 volts."

There they go again - their process can't produce 450 MHz at the nominal Vcc so they have to JACK UP THE VOLTAGE.

That's a 9% power increase over the 2.2 volt part at the same frequency.

However, since 450 MHz is 12.5% above 400 MHz, that adds up to a total of 21.5% POWER INCREASE for 450 MHz K6-2.

I hope the PC OEM's can handle that excess heat generation.
