meh, i'd be surprised if it's more than 10-15 watts.. if the performance inprovement is anywhere near what it should be, it's easy to compensate by reducing clocks some..$BangforThe$ said:All of which will drive up power consumption . Not a good idea.

Thats like saying 512k of cache is better because 1meg is double the transistors which will increase power consumption.

Why dont they just integrated this "Math Co Processor" Onto the Die andd make a new architecture? Why have a "seperate" chip or whatever you know?
Its like... we have integrated FPUs and ALUs etc.. they are not sitting "off by them selfs" why cant we just do that with this too?
