You can set various power settings that suggest that they are limits, but at least in the Skylake NUC I have they really don't do much and certainly don't limit the maximum power the system uses at all. The article doesn't talk enough about the actual power use vs the settings although it sounds like while both are going over there might actually be some limiting in the recent chips.

That Anandtech article did include some power measurements on page three, but given those measurements show the limits are applied inconsistently between AMD and Intel it would have been nice to have power measurements on other graphs too.
