re: incompatible 64 bit transistors

Interesting. I hadn't found a source which definitively described what these transistors were for. Could I bother you for a link?

Prescott is on it's 4th stepping and it's still carrying around the incompatible 64 bit transistors? The power wasted must still be high.

Here you say the transistors are consuming power, there you say they're turned off. I don't understand how you can be taking oxymoronic positions. If it's turned off, how can the transistors are consume any power? 300mm Real estate...... sure. Power....... ummmmmm..... I don't think so.

Is the 1/2 of Prescott that is AMD64 compatible? I decided it wasn't since it is turned off
