AMD 90nm Evaluated

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the never-can-have-enough-fps dept.

muyuubyou writes "The Tech Report has measured the new 90nm A64 3500+ against its 130nm counterpart and a Pentium 4 3.6Ghz 90nm. AMD looks way ahead in the 90nm process especially when it comes to power consumption. Note these are consumptions for the entire system including GeForce 6800 GTs and hefty PSUs. RTFineShortArticle for more detail on the configuration. Leaving the PC on overnight is probably not a good idea with these new Pentium 4s."
