Petz,

I noticed the power consumption numbers last week, when I was researching something else. It looks like AMD's .13u process is being improved. We will see what voltage and power consumption will the final 2700 and 2800 parts have. It would be nice if it remained at 1.65V. Actually, looking at some reviews and the data sheet, 2800 remains 1.65V.

Increased FSB to 166 will add to the power dissipation over 133 MHz of 2400 and 2600 parts.
