Is blue line (power) and grey line (clock frequency) correlated? If so, why this lines are not much correlated?

guyan

Is that because #transistors doesn't necessarily to be proportional to clock rate?

The dark blue line is clock frequency.

The light blue line is power.

The green line is transistors per mm^2 on a chip (chip area density of transistors). Moore's Law describes the green line.
