Elmer Re <<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.>>

I assume you are not being sarcastic in your question,

First of all ohm's law is V=IR, not the one Paul used.

Second, Maximum power dissipation of any IC, is not determined by multiplying core Voltage by peak current. IC does not behave like a simple circuit.

elmer,

Re:" 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."

Yeah you are right again elmer:

AMD's lying about the power.
AMD's lying about their spec numbers.
AMD's lying about the voltage.
AMD's lying about the clock speeds.

You sir have a 100% history of being a complete idiot wrt to the facts. You cast FUD on everything and then blithely move on to the next item.
