What are you talking about? AMD has been really good at the power efficiency department until the 3D CPUs that use extra power for cache memory that simply cannot be turned off. Plus, Intel started applying the 3nm fabrication process, while AMD is still at 4nm. But previously, Intel was at 10nm for a long time, see i9-13900K for example, while Ryzen went to 5nm much sooner, see Ryzen 9 7900x.

Nothing, I'm making this up, except it's been confirmed by pretty much all desktop Zen users: https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/1brs42g/amd_please_tackle_idle_power_consumption_for/ https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/1brs42g/amd_please_tac... I don't bloody care that AMD CPUs seem to be more power efficient than Intel's. For most people their CPUs are completely idle most of the time and Zen CPUs on average idle at 25W or MORE. Many Zen 4 and Zen 5 owners report that their desktop CPUs idle at 40W or more even without the 3D cache.

  I can't confirm the 40W, my Ryzen 9 7900 (non-X) consumes 1W to 3W at idle on Windows 10.

    Please post a HWiNFO64 screenshot. I have reasons to believe you're making this up. Not a single user has seen such low idle power consumption for desktop Zen AMD CPUs.

      Sure, it's reported by the Radeon Software, but I'll check HWiNFO64 soon and post a screenshot.

        52 minutes to post a screenshot? Guess someone doesn't want to be embarrassed.

        Someone flag this comment for insult. I was at work, was taking a break, I wasn't on my personal computer.

        I posted my screenshot yesterday but it's not visible. I don't care anymore.

        I am treated so unfairly, it's unbelieavable. People with insults get away without punishment, but my innocent screenshot is invisible.

      Could it be that that some cores are constantly being waked up by something? I mention that since you seem to be on Windows, which itself has a hard time to just shut up, but that is also easily paired with bad drivers, stupid software and bad peripherals.
