One more question:

From the AMD technical paper:

ALL the Athlon 64 with the same core do have the same lowest state power consumption (22W) and the same highest state consumption of 89W.

So that means that my 2800+ uses 89W @ 1800Mhz.

If I look at a 3200+ which has a higher max state and in addition has several intermediate states it also says just 89W for the highest state..

If I asume that I run that CPU at 1800+ (which is obviously a intermediate state for it) the technical paper says something between 22W and 89W.

How can this be? Could I get a lower heat system when using the higher CPU and sticking it to 1800Mhz compared to my current CPU running natively 1800Mhz?!?

I was wondering because all the Athlons I am refering have the same core.

Anyone an explanation?
