INTEL HAS GOT around to improvenng the power numbers for its 65nm server chips. The firm's latest Thermal Design Power (TDP) sheet details how much power the new Xeon Revision G processor eats in comparison with the older ones, and the difference is somewhat shocking.
According to the latest data, the firm halved the power consumption of its quad-core Xeon X5365, from 50W to 25W, in case of top-end Clovertown. And the very same idle thermals apply to the X5355 (quad-core 2.66GHz) and the E5340 (quad-core 2.33GHz).
