doesnt it have some separate power planes and stuff.. maybe thats the difference. plus. the current am2+ have linked pstates or something because of windows scheduler not being able to correctly turn off cores. and theyre working with microsoft to get that working properly with am3 so cores can independently switch off with individual pstates
