    Very noce to see 65nm in chipsets finally, look at that little thing
    Friends shouldn't let friends use Windows 7 until Microsoft fixes Windows Explorer (link)

    let me get this straigt:
    X48 = 90 nm
    P4x = 65 nm

    or am I missing something?

    does make sense as after the transition to 45 nm Intel should have a bunchload of 65 nm production capacity free (assuming that not all tools are upgraded to 45 nm)

    Yes that makes sense, but chipsets are always one step behind CPUs in nm. And considering how much electricity X38/X48 eats it'd be nice that Intel shrinks it to 65nm

    of course they are as customers are more likely to take a look at the TDP of their processor as at the consumption of their mainboard. plus in the past they only consumed a very small amount compared to the CPUs (well... up to X38 xD). they don't have that many transistors so it is not really necessary to use a cutting edge process.

    Don't forget overcloking, less nm = more OC, and you know where we are
