No. He's measuring the difference in overall power consumption of the same computer using two different processors under two different states: idle and heavy load. Two states which TDP does not seek to measure.
Again, TDP is NOT peak thermal dissipation.
- mark-r 10y agoIs there a standard load for measuring TDP then? If not, how would you attempt to test it other than placing the processor under heavy load?

No. Different manufacturers use different definitions of what a typical load means. > If not, how would you attempt to test it other than placing the processor under heavy load? Well given that Intel has stated, "The TDP is not the maximum power that the processor can dissipate." Then testing under heavy load is most certainly not correct.
