The Energy Efficient family of dual-core Athlon 64 X2 processors will include Athlon 64 X2 3800+ with 35W TDP, which will remain single dual-core offering with such a low power consumption till Q2 2007, as well as models 3800+, 4000+, 4200+, 4400+ and 4600+ with thermal guideline of 65W. In Q3 2006 AMD is expected to introduce the model 4800+, which is expected to remain the top energy efficient offering till the Q2 2007, with similar thermal specs. Depending on the speed bin, the dual-core desktop chips from AMD now have 110W or 89W TDP. Typical dual-core chips for socket AM2 will have TDP of 89W.

Really impressive.
why do i suspect the energy efficent processors are cut down cores?
not to be a fanboy (but you must add it since you yourself did for AMD) - conroe = 65w for there dual cores and that took on AMDs chip which is 110w - 120w, whats "impressive"? and yonah already did it and clock for clock months ago, theres nothing "impressive" apart from Intel's Pentium M / P6 tech.
The 35W 3800+ is a kind of impression, but the rest is not impressive. I would like to see some K8 overperforming Core with less power, than we can say that something is impressive. Until than, stop spiting marketing around, AM2 will sux a lot as the things seems now.
Still, AMD’s new Athlon 64 FX-62 processor is expected to have 125W wattage whereas Extreme Edition of Conroe, also targeted at gamers, will have typical heat dissipation of 95W.

Its a good sign - Intel is back to were they were before the P4
What speed was that 95w slated for? 2.93ghz?
Whats happening with AMD - are they still stuck with 90nm till the end of the year?
