The Ryzen 7 1800X has a TDP of 95W and beats the 140W Intel i7-6900K by 4% in performance. They've made some huge jumps in power efficiency.
I don't know if AMD will make a new architecture or not, but I can't see why they wouldn't just release 32 Ryzen cores side-by-side and underclocked at the stock configuration.
- Sephr 10y agoThe 1800X will use 130W+ in the same scenarios as the 6900k. AMD just seems to be defining TDP differently.
- bobbington 10y agoI've seen benchmarks showing the 95w number is very unrealistic and that it actually uses more like the Intel processor under certain loads
- simplyinfinity 10y agoThe thermal design power is the maximum amount of heat generated by a computer chip or component that the cooling system in a computer is designed to dissipate in typical operation. TDP =/= power consumed
- zeusk 10y agobut TDP is also a function of power consumption, directly proportional. So comparing TDP of processors of similar fabrication should tell you about comparative power consumption if not the exact difference.
- loeg 10y ago> TDP =/= power consumed Where do you think the heat comes from? Or where do you think the power that doesn't turn into heat goes?

- hvidgaard 10y agoI think he is trying to argue that TDP is a figure about the cooling requirement during peak power usage. Actual power usage may or may not be less during typical workload.
- leonroy 10y agoAs far as TDP goes, the transferrence of electrical energy to heat is equivalent to that of a space heater as Puget Systems demonstrated here: https://www.pugetsystems.com/labs/articles/Gaming-PC-vs-Space-Heater-Efficiency-511/ https://www.pugetsystems.com/labs/articles/Gaming-PC-vs-Spac...
