Has the 80GB MGS PS3 got the 65nm Cell?

[DetroitSportsFan]

With all of the questions regarding the new 80GB MGS PS3 and what cell processor it has, I performed a test.

I took my new Monster PRO3500 power conditioner, and took turns connecting my 20GB PS3 which has the 90nm cell, and my new 80GB MGS PS3. Each time I got a reading, the PS3 was the only component connected to the power conditioner.

Let me make it clear that I'm not an electricity expert, I just wanted to see if one consumes more power than the other.

First was the 20GB PS3. After turning on the PS3 and letting it run for approximately 5 minutes, the power conditioner indicated a peak amperage of 1.6. Picture:



Next was the 80GB PS3. After turning on the PS3 and letting it run for approximately 5 minutes, the power conditioner indicated a peak amperage of 1.2. Picture:



So based on my not so professional test, it appears that these new 80GB MGS PS3s have the 65nm cell.
