AMD promotes Athlon 64 2000+ that consumes only 8Watts


At 0.85 V and 1Ghz clock. Nice singlecore for handhelds.
And 2Ghz A64 3100+ at 25W. Nice for notebooks.
Please note that 2 times higher clock means 3 times higher TDP.
Not linear, as expected. 4 Ghz A64 would consule only 75W?
3Ghz only 45W? Dual core at 3Ghz would consume 89W?
Seems a lot of space for scaling at AMD. Because Intel's 45nm
already knocks at its doors, see below.
