For home use, that's fine. I don't worry about the power peak usage of my computer since it rarely gets to that level. For servers, that's a no-go.

- neogodless 5y agoI think there's another way to word this or spin this... For home use, it's going to depend on the consumer. Some people want a chip that's easy to power and cool, and still gets 80/90/95% of the performance. Some people want the absolute best performer (for their specific uses) with less regard to cooling and power.
- pradn 5y agoI think peak performance, even if it gets thermo-throttled quickly, is important. Web site JS parsing during loading is like that, and that's an essential function of my computer these days. And perhaps for bursty sections of AAA games as well. But yes, it depends on the user.
