Constantine, Re: "I am not privy to the exact numbers but I am sure there's a threshold past which it makes sense to sell more $50 Cpus than a lot fewer $65 cpus." You want them to sell 67% more CPUs for only 25% more revenue. There will obviously be a significant cost involved. You can argue this as a remote possibility, but I'm sure that if AMD could make profits by operating in this way, then they would. wbmw

Cool and quiet (35w) Durons added to the Athlon XP 1500+ selling in Akiba: watch.impress.co.jp Englishish: Exact in new model Duron appearance and the small-sized quiet sound PC of COOL ' N ' Quiet functional loading? Lately, with the original PC market boom of the small-sized quiet sound PC is overheating feeling, but the among such and the new attention item appeared. That low with the electric power consumption edition Duron of recent model, " without the technology which changes the core clock dynamically is feature. As for being able to verify sale on the core " the DHL1100ATH1B " and the OPN (the Ordering Part Numbers) the marking the 1.1gHz operational model which is done. When this OPN is different from " the DHD1100AMT1B " of the usual Duron 1.1gHz clearly, the OPN the AMD sells conversely so far of electric power consumption edition CPU collates low, there is a common point that 2 - the 3rd beam of the OPN has become " the HL ". With the T-ZONE. PC DIY SHOP which begins sale, " the economical electrical Duron 1.1gHz bulk FSB 100MHz usually as for edition the 46w (MAX) the how 35w (MAX)" with posting the POP which is written, sale is appealed largely inside the store. Already when you mention the AMD developed in the one for CPU electric power consumption function low " the PowerNow! " Is known, but the circuit and the like where this needs corresponds even on motherboard side was necessary. " The COOL ' N ' Quiet " of one side without operational circumstance because on occasion CPU itself changes the clock, is a merit that it does not require new cost and the part on motherboard side. As for the CPU which had this function, the Athlon XP 1500+ has been shipped already, also the PC which loads this from Hitachi has become sale. Adjusting to the load circumstance of the CPU, the clock changes dynamically, when load is low, also the clock becoming low, electric power consumption decreasing, also heat generation becomes small. As for the AMD we have assumed, it is the technology which was developed for miniaturizing and quiet sound conversion the PC it coincides to recent small-sized quiet sound PC boom just exactly. So far, the small-sized PC original kit of Socket A correspondence after considering the size of the calorific value of the Athlon XP superior model, was in a state where the product does not come out very to becoming the design partly due, but when the CPU which loads this new function starts circulating, perhaps circumstance it changes. Furthermore, according to the same store, in order to use this " COOL ' N ' Quiet " function, 4 Tsuga present conditions of the corresponding motherboard and the corresponding BIOS and the corresponding OS and the corresponding driver it must be with necessary other than correspondence CPU. Because it grasps the combination and the like of the concrete product which satisfies operating condition, the person who would like to know have assumed we want inquiring with the shop front. As for actual sale price 7,800 Yen (as for details thing " of the new product reference which this week is found"). </I
