Intel Woodcrest to use 80W

The upcoming 65nm Woodcrest processors will use 80W, except the low voltage version that only consumed 40W.

We know this because we saw a week 15 Intel roadmap provided to its original equipment manufacturers, but the chip firm has not yet decided on clock speeds for its 4/4 Cloverton, when that launches late this year or early next year.

The 65 nanometre Woodcrests line up in the following configurations which we hastily scribbled down on the back of a fag packet. The Woodcrests come to life in Q3.
