AMD having trouble with 65nm stock voltage speed
 

WORD HAS FINALLY hit our tender ears about what AMD's problems at 65nm are rather than the nebulous 'they have issues'. A bird has been singing to us that AMD is having problems getting the speeds they need out of the stock voltages. This is forcing AMD to pump things as high as 1.4V. If you do the math, (1.4^2)/(1.1^2) = 1.62, so AMD is forced to use 60+% more power than they wanted to.

and the Intel investor rubs his hands again :excellent
