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.
Wait, what!? How the heck is this absolute unit of a motherboard using the least power, but delivering some of the fastest performance? We see the same with the AORUS Extreme too, truly it shows that as expensive as these boards are, their pretty impressive bits of hardware in terms of power usage and performance.
