There is one thing that you are missing, that is the fact that AMD is much more strict in TDP ratings then Intel. So if AMD would rate a CPU at 125W, then Intel would rate it at 100W. Those figures ought to be taken with a grain of salt, as I do not know how much of a difference there is, but it is quite a well known fact that AMD is stricter in thier ratings.
