Re: "not the 67.2 W which you foolishly got from multiplying 1.6 by 42. "

What's so "foolish" about ohm's law? Maybe you should be asking how AMD can claim only 50W when the numbers seem to prove otherwise.

Mani - re: "At 600 MHz, maximum power dissipation is 50 W, not the 67.2 W which you foolishly got from multiplying 1.6 by 42. I thought you would have a better grasp of this issue. Here are the specs according to AMD: Maximum power dissipation for 500, 550, 600, 650MHz is 42, 46, 50, and 54W "

It appears that AMD can't do their math - how do you explain the maximum power being less than Vcc * Iccmax ?
