"Transmeta targets to mobile market and may be a concurrent to VIA C3, but from the technological point of view C3 is somehow between any other x86 CPU from AMD or Intel and a Transmeta Crusoe. When a instruction translation occurs, the CPU looses time so the performance may not be as high as the performance of a traditional CPU running at the same frequency. However, there is one big advantage, the use of a relatively low number of transistors. Practically VIA C3 wants to provide a good performance while keeping the heat level very low. "
