No it does not generate less heat. It generates more heat. Generating less heat is not the same thing as running at a colder temperatures. Ivy bridge desktop cpus generate less heat but don't dissipate it as effectively, thus they end up reaching higher temperatures.

The mobile chips do not have this problem because they do not use the cheap TIM or heatspreader.
