    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.
