Obviously the number of active components in the
cpu where the failure of them renders the cpu useless.

And clearly it costs a lot more to make a cpu that produces
massive amounts of heat when running flat out, to get rid
of that heat compared with a much lower performance cpu
that doesn’t need anything like the same need to get rid of
that heat.

If they all cost the same to make, even someone as stupid
as you should be able to grasp that all laptops and tablets
and phones would all have the highest performance cpus
because there would be no point in the separate manufacturing
lines that are used to produce the much cheaper cpus.
