500 watts!! Jesus. M3 seems more efficient.
Netburst is back baby!!!
Hear me out, but I want to see it run Crysis with an older GPU.
The reason I say this is because Crysis was built around the assumption that future CPUs would be single core monstrosities running at 5+GHz, but we took core count first.
“Retailer lists” tells you everything you need to know.
The amount of power being used to run these chips is the turnoff. Then again, these are probably for a very niche consumer segment anyway (enthusiasts).
Average power draw is around 55W. You won’t get these processors to draw more than 300w for more than 20 seconds, ever.
Now wait for AMD to match this speed with perma 100C cores.
Ok so still consuming power like a refrigerator, CPU looking very promising, only problem is that I already have a refrigerator, my wallet can’t hold 2 of them, so I guess I will pass, thanks for the memories.
Quite amazing all these commenters insinuating like the CPU draw max power at all time. It’s 40-50w CPU under typical load. Its performance is there if you need it.
Probably funny to parrot the narrative rather than saying something not stupid.
Because I don’t know anything about computers and just use them, what does like a m1 MacBook Air or pro use power wise?
No comparison really, completely different classes. This intel has 20 cores Apple M1 chip has 8, and all 20 of intel’s cores are faster than the fastest core on Apple M1 chip. It’s like comparing a fast family car to a racing car.
Ty. No wonder everyone complains about the 8 on the MacBook Pro.
With much worse miles per gallon in the latter case
I think we are talking about max draw not avg draw
Modern core design means your cpu avg draw should be no more than 50w.
A chip that draws 300watts average is about 20 seconds away from drawing zero watts.
Because it’d be dead.
But there is no point to discuss avg draw because most chips will have similar avg draw regardless of quality or price.
I’m not sure I follow. My 3600 is much slower than my 3600x? Is that all down to binning or power delivery?
They both need to boost past 50w when I’m gaming. The x is on a much nicer x570 board though.
Well, isn’t it just the same chip as 13th gen, just from a different bin? Intel didn’t really update anything this time, same arch, same conf, same node, same all. And higher bin only makes sense if you actually drive it to it’s limits, so… the narrative isn’t half wrong.
Its a RL refresh. Maybe they shouldnt call it “14th gen” (reserve that for ML only) and people wouldn be so agry about it.
14700 technically got more cores so there is that. The other two didn’t change
A good 360mm AIO already isn’t good enough for the 14900K as-is, so good luck cooling this thing.
360mm is absolutely fine, mine is keeping 14700k under 70°C in any game, up to 75°C with prime95 and I’m running it oc @ 5,8 all cores. That being said my friend has a 240mm and it’s working hard to keep it under 80°C.
900 wats wen?
You could probably get 900W pretty easily just by putting two of these into an enterprise server.
You could, but then all you’re doing is buying a very expensive and inefficient space heater.
exactly as efficient as any other afaik
Using electricity to move existing heat from elsewhere (e.g. reverse cycle refrigerative air-conditioner) is around 3 times more efficient than converting electricity into heat.
It *could* be argued that all computers are just very expensive and inefficient devices for heating space.
Pretty sure CPUs convert electricity to heat at 100% efficiency.
Space heaters are the only appliance that is 100% efficient
🤓 actually nothing is 100% as you are gonna lose a tiny amount of power to resistance
No thanks my oven is still working.
*requires liquid nitrogen or 500W equivalent cooling to reach advertised clock speeds
**cooling required not included in package
***we are not liable for your doubled electricity bill
A 360mm water cooler keeps it around 65°C and its like 150 bucks.
When celeron
Intel has done marginally well with its new Core tech to bring significant performance gains compared to the previous gen tech. While the performance is good, the power draw is INSANE.
When will Intel have a new Core tech that may address the power and heat draw?
