It should be much better since Intel will use fully depleted SOI, which has more benefits and less drawbacks compared to AMD/IBM's partially depleted SOI implementation (which really don't help for several key forms of leakage anyways). Of course FD-SOI is bleeding edge technology and will be a challenge even for Intel's manufacturing prowess.Originally posted by: Acanthus
They have selected a substrate for SOI that will be used in the .065 chips, this should bring leakage and dissipation down to AMD/IBM-like levels.
