Well, aside from the Bulldozer architecture by AMD (Even this is just a redesign of existing technology), nothing phenomenal has changed in the basic design of microprocessors. Their efficiency, speed, and transistor counts have improved at an extreme level in the past five years, but the core designs of processors have remained about the same.
The most extreme change would be manufacturing processes. AMD has improved from the 45 nanometer process to the 32 nanometer process, and Intel is working at an astounding 22 nanometer, and is already researching 16/ 14nm processes. To put this into perspective, working at the 14nm process size will have individual 'wires' being insulated by walls 5 ATOMS THICK! I consider the manufacturing process an extreme change, even if actual design has remained the same.
The biggest changes are coming from nano computing and searching for a successor to CMOS-- Look for emerging computer technologies in the next couple years!
