"There are two flavors of mobile A64s. One has 1 meg. of L2 cache and is rated at a TDP of 57-65 watts. The other is a low power version that has 512k and a TDP of 35 watts."

Hmm... I hadn't given this a whole lot of thought, but, given two chips with similar performance, shouldn't a big cache chip use less power power than a small cache chip? (i.e. because the clock on the big cache chip would be lower, and the cache doesn't take much juice)
