Correct. I never stated anything different. I was replying to the statement that “high clock speeds and high wattage are not related” when clearly frequency affects the power output in a linear fashion. Of course changing a manufacturing process is going to likely change the capacitance but the biggest savings in thermal has been the decrease in voltage as the process have shrunk.
I don’t get the downvotes though. I posted an accurate, relevant formula to the discussion and stated a factual statement.
