I think this isn't quite right - TDP is the amount of heat the system needs to be able to dissipate in order to prevent thermal throttling at a given base speed. If the system can dissipate more (and provide more power), chips can clock higher to a turbo or boost speed.
- avianes 5y agoyes, that's why I put "in theory". But you're right, I should have written something like "with a simplistic perspective" instead.
