You could run an i7 with 2 phases if you liked. Got nothing to do with power consumption. More phases=more finetune for overclockers aswell as more stable supply. But also larger inefficiency.
You would also be amazed I guess on how few phases most server MBs got...
This one is 6 phases for example:

Intels own Smackover X58 board is 6 phases aswell. Asus T6T is 4 phases I think. Asus TEB-D is 5 phases. Flextronics TX65H is 5. MSI MS9199 is 3 or 4.
