- ac29 9mo agoDo you have more information on that? I have a meteor lake laptop (pre-Lunar Lake) and the entire machine averages ~4W most of the time, including screen, wifi, storage and everything else. So, I dont see how the CPU memory controller can use 3-4W unless it is for irrelevantly brief periods of time.
- phonon 9mo agoThat's peak usage. I don't know how reduced the PHY power usage is when there aren't any memory accesses. For comparison, the peak wattage of Meteor Lake is something like 30-60 Watts. https://www.phoronix.com/review/intel-whiskeylake-meteorlake/12#:~:text=On%20average%20the%20Core%20Ultra,than%20the%20Core%20i7%201185G7. https://www.phoronix.com/review/intel-whiskeylake-meteorlake...
