Operating Costs
With the cost of living increases across the world, especially when it comes to the cost of electricity, it’s worth looking at the cost of running a processor and how it compares to similar products on the market. By taking the average cost per kWh, we can calculate a rough running cost at idle, during a simulated workload test (Cinebench R23), to give us worst-case scenario costs, as well as gaming costs during a run of Cinebench R23.

It really is amazing to see one of the fastest motherboards we’ve ever tested is actually cool, green and efficient compared to its rivals, so operating costs are actually very respectable here.
