I'm not sure we should be surprised - changes cost energy. Lots of clock pulses and lots of transistors change state at GHz frequency.
- moffkalast 4y agoThe main problem I guess is that x64/x86 aren't designed for power efficiency as much as just pure speed. RISC does a lot better, and biological computers are on a few orders of magnitude more efficient. So there's definitely a lot of room for improvement.
