i did make my comment because tahoe seemed to be dreaming ...


how can nvidia reduce power by 33% while retaining the same performance ... on the same chip on a simple respin ...

Like I said, its done all the time, how did AMD reduce TDP from the first PII 940's at 3ghz and now have have a 975 at 3.6ghz in the same TDP with higher performance, as you would seem to put it, "a simple respin."

Not to mention what they've done with the X6.
