I do basically all of that, CPU idles around 5% but still consumes over 100W. (Minus the Wireless part) (5800X + 64GB) I can enable Eco Mode in the BIOS, which will bring down the CPU to about 65W max although its still at about 100W total system.

Whatever software you are using is totally, utterly broken. Not sure what else I can tell you. Even a completely decked out Ryzen AI Max Pro 395 idles at 5W in Windows S0 (see: https://h20195.www2.hp.com/v2/getpdf.aspx/c09133726.pdf https://h20195.www2.hp.com/v2/getpdf.aspx/c09133726.pdf)

Chiplet based Ryzen CPUs inherently have higher idle power draw. Monolithic chips like 5600G have lower idle power draw. The motherboard, power supply, and internal peripherals all need to be carefully selected to get a really low idle figure.
