Less than 5% performance loss at 1080p from 253W to 95W while only 12% for applications. Factory overlocked for performance crown nonsense makes these extremely inefficient.
That is honestly fantastic. I guess I can get a 14700k and comfortably combine it with a Peerless Assassin. Great bang-for-buck.
Now if only there was a cheap z790 option for 14th gen :/
And everyone in the AMD subs downvoted me en masses for saying Raptor Lake was actually pretty damn efficient when not chasing peak performance. My 13700k sips a mere 50w while playing a CPU intensive game at 4k120.
People just assume it'll always use as much power as when it's benchmarked and can't be told otherwise, even when they don't own one themselves. Still, these results are pretty amazing even to me. I'm curious what I can do with my 13700k now at 95w with an undervolt.
