different CPUs consume different amounts of power. According to what core it uses and the amount of voltage required, as well as the size of the die.

*thats the short explanation
 
Voltage can be thought of as electrical pressure, such as the pressure that exists in a water pipe. The higher the voltage, the higher the current flow will be through a given resistance. Hope that helps. www.3dauto.com
