Re: Read the first page of the link to the spec sheet you gave, where it says - "Low-voltage 750MHz" The figures I quoted were from the 1GHZ mobile chip running 1.7v and 1.35v. Try again. :-) Dan

Re: I didn't realize the Tualatin spec sheet on the web is for the server/workstation version The server/workstation version of coppermine has the same power consumption as the mobile version when both are run at 1GHZ (and so, at 1.75 volts). The mobile version has speedstep - other than that it appears to be the same chip. developer.intel.com Tualatin clocks higher at a given voltage, but also uses considerably more power if run at the same voltage and speed as coppermine. Which doesn't say much for the process or the latest revisions to the core. I'm sure Intel will refine their .13 over time, but so far, not so good. AMD, by every indication, could have been ready to go with an Intel-style straight .13 copper process last fall. Instead, they performed that panicky scramble to bolt a FAB extension to the roof of FAB 30 so they could add SOI to their .13 process. Judging by the numbers coming from Tualatin, I think we now know why. Dan
