my 13600k reach 125watts (vcore 1.077v) without any issue/ performance loss,.

and this 125-130watts is max powerdraw in cbr23,. if i play games its take 30-55watts ,. some cases 75watts (like cyberpunk),.

full performance with 125-130watts - 24200 cbr23 score;
reduced performance with 95watts - 22800 cbr23 score https://imgur.com/a/owNYMrO (i use both hwinfo and hwmonitor :) );

this 95watts is power limit over 125watts undervolt; so its not affect gaming performance and gaming power draws.

13600k & 14600k owners, what is your idle and/or low workload power consumption?

i undervolted my 13600k,. without performance loss,.
idle power - 2.5watts ;
few chrome (currently using) - 4-10watts ;
max powerdraw in cbr23 - 125-128watts (from ~180watts);
low workload (10 chrome tab+ background download+ watching movie+ recording+ spotify -20 min avg https://imgur.com/a/GFVmZ9i 22watts) - 22watts

some gaming- mostly below 50watts,.

i think both special editions,.
k - unlocked
s - special edition
f - no igpu

i tried,. and its bad,.

if you want to switch off E-cores > use only BIOS (not process lasso or coredirector or taskmanager)

if you dont like to disable e-cores > use heterogeneous policy 0 in powerplan,.

only 25c idle temp,. :o nice ; in my area 37-41c idle; eventhough i use 1core with 1ghz speed xd,.
what system/SSD/Harddisk/GPU temp in idle?

heterogeneous policy 0 with e-cores , or disabling e-cores gives better performance (1%lows),.
im using 1st ,. and its good with every games

HT not working (HT on in BIOS) + E cores on = gives worst case,.

So, APO was utilizing an e-core from every e-core group, which enables cpu to reach a bigger cache, which leads an effect like AMDs 3d cache. It's awesome. Has anyone tried to do this manually for 13th gen?

like in my 13600k, i disable 2-4&6-8 e cores with process lasso,. (1 e core per group),.
nothing changed,. same fps (521fps) in cs2 (cpu bottlenecked/ gpu75%) ,.

until now ,. heterogeneous policy 0 with e-cores , or disabling e-cores gives better performance (1%lows),. but those not increase any fps like APO,.

48gb x 4 slots (192gb) max right?

what vcore in cinebench load?

i think you cant completely disable all p-cores ,. atleast 1 p-core have to run,.

if we assume e-core (like i5 6400 , 4 cores)
8 e cores give- single 902/ multi 6460 cbr23 score
4 p cores give- single 1722/ multi 7540 cbr23 score
1 e core give -multi 807 score ; 1 p core give - multi 1885 score;
like 1p core =2.3 e cores,.
in total,.
12cores give- single 1722/ multi 14000 cbr23 score.
(note , all values are just assumptions ,..not tested) ,. in my 13th gen cpu , 1p core =2.5 to 3 e cores,.

if you going to use win10,.

consider editing powerplan,.

>create new powerplan with balanced (base)

install "powersettingsexplorer" app ,.

change > Heterogeneous policy 4 to policy 0 ,.

you cant find issues with balanced power plan mostly ,. but this change work even more better

your 12700 have 8 p cores (16threads) and 4 e cores (4 threads),.
see graphs,. those last 4 graphs are 4 e cores,.

it mean ,. this work carry by E-Cores ,. and your p-cores carry forground works,.
if you click current task ,. that task use p-cores mostly,.
you can manually switch cores with taskmanager (set affinity) or you can use process lasso,.

personally i dont like those methods ,.
so i edited my balanced powerplan ,.heterogeneous policy 4 to heterogeneous policy 0 ,. which forcefully use all cores with hyperthreading,. and this method give best 1% and 0.1% lows in games
