I understand that the CPU's nm process determines how effective the frequency becomes. For example a 3.0 Ghz frequency with 32nm process (sandy bridge) would be out done by a 22nm process (Ivy-Bridge or Leaked Haswell). How does it scale, exactly? Is there a direct way to compare a 32nm Sandy Bridge to an Ivy-Bridge / Leaked Haswell's 22nm, some magical formula? Also, why is it that the Haswell is expected / leaked / rumored to use the exact same 22nm process as an Ivy Bridge, what benefits, other than its "3x better" internal GPU, does it have?
Thanks a lot!
