I would say that this should be taught in driver education courses, but seeing as Maryland has removed even parallel parking from their test I have very little hope left.

Refer to the following, taken from that guide: 4.1 T_CASE and DTS-Based Thermal Specification Implementation Thermal solutions should be sized such that the processor complies to the T_CASE thermal profile all the way up to TDP, be

TDP is used by multiple manufacturers, so getting a "coherent definition" is going to take work. If you want to understand more about the thermal specs from only Intel. You can read their thermal guide: http://www.intel

Let's get to the crux, here: > Unless your "typical load" used for determining TDP does not actually make use of the full number of cores > If the 4 core actually needs to dissipate 140W under a typical use case, then t

So if TDP is a measure, given in wattage, of thermal dissipation of a CPU under a typical load. Why can't I simply assume double that value for a CPU's actual power consumption under heavy load? I mean, using that logic the max po

No. He's measuring the difference in overall power consumption of the same computer using two different processors under two different states: idle and heavy load. Two states which TDP does not seek to measure. Again, TDP is NOT peak t

> So if we assume that Intel's 4-core is actually 140W TDP, then there's no way this 6-core can also be 140W. Why? How can you say that under typical usage the thermal dissipation for both chips isn't the same? Atwood&#x27

The author is comparing how off overall power consumption is from the stated thermal design power under a sustained, heavy load; which is not what TDP is intended to measure ... "TDP is not the maximum power that the processor can diss

From Intel: "Thermal Design Power (TDP) should be used for processor thermal solution design targets. The TDP is not the maximum power that the processor can dissipate." "Analysis indicates that real applications are unlikely

When you're arguing over a 110 watt difference, 50 watts lost as heat in the PSU is not insignificant and certainly enough to skew a test.

by msimpson 10y ago
Yet, he is not measuring the Vcore going into the CPU. He is measuring the overall wattage consumed by the PSU at the outlet using a Kill-a-Watt. This contains a lot more draw than just the CPU, itself. That's an overwhelming lack of c

How do you measure TDP with a Kill-a-Watt? Energy consumption does not equate to thermal design power. Nor is TDP even a measure of peak thermal output ...
