Power Consumption
I use the Powenetics system to measure power consumption in every significant part of the mainboard, with up to 1000 readings per second.
The CPU’s power consumption at idle is low, at about the same level as the 7600x. During gaming, however, it increases, with an average of close to 106W. This is still too low compared to Intel’s results, of course, but this CPU is supposed to have a 65W TPD. The CPU starts to show improvements in power consumption and management in heavy multi-thread applications, like Cinebench, where its power consumption is notably lower than that of the 7600x.
Peak Power Consumption
I obtained the peak power consumption readings shown in the graph above during the start of the Prime95 benchmark. As you can see in the corresponding graph, the power spike is high, but after that, the CPU’s power consumption drops to around 105W.
Energy Usage
The energy usage is low in multiple-threads, but I would like it to be even lower in single-threaded ones.
I had no idea that setting thermal limit to 65 degrees can slow down cpu only by few percent in performance from stock setting. That’s literally cool.
I have tested 9700x in Cinebench r23 with below settings and single/multicore results:
65c 65W 6000Mhz memory 2098/15710 vs
95c 65W 6000mem = 2146/20280 vs
95c 105W 6400mem = single 2156/multi 20988
So it’s slowing down by 29% in synthetic tests. In games this is visible as well cause it bottlenecks your GPU.
OC is not worth it in my opinion but the CPU is the stellar deal in terms of performance per Watt for Zen 5.
I hope I am wrong now. — Buffo.
Yes, you are. Don’t get caught up in metonymy. Most of these things are false flags. But here is not the place to discuss that, I think.
Thank you, Bufo.
The em element
You have to hurry up!

—“…Today, everything has to do with efficiency, not only because of the increased electricity prices but also due to the rapid climate change, so we have to do whatever is possible to reduce our energy needs and use more efficient devices.
…
Well, these words should be framed on each bulletin board of engineering and design department …especially in Santa Clara 😛
Do you really believe in human-caused climate change?
While the climate change as such is normal, but the velocity of current warming is unprecedented in the last 65 million years (at that time the rapid cooling was caused by an extraterrestrial visitor which caused the extinction of the dinosaurs)
Apparently you also believe that there was a pandemic and that these new genetic vaccines are safe. Never mind.
You are apparently inclined to the opinions about chemtrails, flat earth, chipping, that the Americans destroyed the twin towers themselves, etc.
I hope I am wrong now. 😉
Have you ever heard about WOS, Scopus, etc?
If you are Slovak, I will successfully guess who you voted for 😮

Anyway, from my point of view this thread is closed 😉
You can educate me, but I will no longer respond to this thread 😉
