Cool. A couple of years and they produce processors which heat up like a real nuclear reactor! |

Heat is a problem that is starting to plague every aspect of computing technology. That and power requirements. It's not just Intel having such problems. AMD had many in the past, and ATI/Nvidia are also starting to see issues resulting in more power being required for the video chips. |

Uhh when you shrink the chip it produces less heat. When you shrink the die it requires less voltage. Which produces less heat. Problem is that Intel sees 65nm as a way to get 4 Ghz CPUs. Of course getting higher clock speeds means more voltage to prevent cross talk. |

Uhh when you shrink the chip it produces less heat. A chip will make less heat if the EXACT SAME DESIGN is moved to a smaller manufacturing process. This is rarely true, as manufactures typically add more transistors and thus inrease the overall power requirements. Chip voltages have always been droping (not increasing), in an attempt to prevent gate leakage (what you refered to as cross talk). This trend will continue, and so will overall power requirements. |
