Intel Core i9-10900F Can Allegedly Pull Up to 224 W

[ARF]

People don't care about power consumption on this forum, so pull the sticks out of your arses.

People on this forum will need money to pay the electricity bills, to adjust a high-end water cooling and high-end motherboard that can support this power draw.
I guess Intel should just skip this launch for the MSDT and instead redirect all the efforts towards promoting affordable and inefficient HEDT systems with the 10th generation lineup.

When AMD was nowhere with its Zambezi/Vishera, they simply stopped further development, and focused on Zen.

*YAWN*

I have seen my 9900K register over 300W in HWiNFO during serious overclocked benchmarks.

They’ll care when they see the electric bill.

At least while your gaming you can cook a steak with a side of eggs.

And does this mean Intel will sell these 10 core i9-10900F for so much less than AMD's 16 cores 3950X? I figure since people think that products with better per/$/TDP indicate a premium does Intel realize they need to adjust pricing to be the second tier alternative? When the 3950X is like a $730 it feels expensive at north of $500 given the expense of and trade-off in cooling, while what would still appear to provide a detriment in performance. That's what manufacture need to do to sell second tier offerings.

Is Intel going to provide a window air conditioner with the purchase of one of these chips? You're going to need it!

Desk sized chiller is optional, and sold under condition it is hidden under a sheet and you pretend it doesn't exist.

Excuse me, my good sire, but I do care about it. Here, have an HEDT 14nm Skylake.

Welcome once again to another "muscle car" era in PC hardware... at least CPUs. Performance matters most, so if increasing power draw is the only thing Intel can do to make a faster product, they will. You can bet AMD will do similar. However, lower performance, lower power chips will still exist.

Only when either AMD or Intel are very comfortably ahead, like Intel was before Zen, will we see TDP figures going down. When you're already performing ahead of your competition, that's when you get to focus more on efficiency.

Anyone know what a 5GHz 2600k would pull? I bet it's something similar to this. They're just pushing the envelope closer and closer to the limit with each release.

A small difference (<20%) can exist between TDP and power consumption. Not double the figure. Then it is called misleading or even a fraud.

BS. It depends on the architecture and there is not a specific percentage.
TDP =Thermal DESIGN power, which as we all know is the, is the maximum amount of heat in a cpu that needs to be cooled. It has very little to do with power consumption of a cpu because simply not all cpu's have the same power efficiency.
The dynamic power consumed by a switching circuit is approximately proportional to the square of the voltage.
