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.
A pretty average result here, with idle hitting 73.8 watts, which is a little on the higher side, but the load usage was pleasantly low at just 373.70 watts, so yeah… average is no bad thing here, and while it’s using more power than other B-series boards, it’s also delivering more performance too.
