Here's an article from The Economist (understandable by a non-technical person such as myself) that discusses the future direction of computer chip technology.

HammerSandwich - yes, resistance (when talking abour electric flow) increased in conductors with temperature
However resistance decreases with increasing temperature for SEMICONDUCTORS
And that is not all - thermal resistance decreased with increased temperature too
...after all, Dr Pinfold just need to learn that better cooling is allways better solution that chip with 4 cores - not to mention the 4 cores will be kinda expensive
Let's use the money on nice cooper heatpipe cooler rather
