Power Consumption
Power consumption is measured at idle, during a Cinebench R23 run and during a gaming benchmark run of Cyberpunk 2077, which is a very CPU-intensive game. By getting 3 performance metrics, it allows us to see a better picture of the average user and what they are typically going to see in terms of power draw for just the processor itself.
During the VRM testing, we also took the power consumption figures, and it’s actually pretty good too, coming in a lot lower than expected and comes in lower than most of the competition including the ASUS ROG Extreme, putting it right on the money.
