For whatever reasons a lot of tech reviewers recently make no effort to find differences in performance between the CPU's they test when it comes to gaming.
There is a trend now to publish bar charts that is a solid block of near equal length bars between as many as 20 different CPU's, in the...
That is not me, who owns the site is irreverent, unless you are saying Intel owns it directly or pseudo? all i'm interested in is the quality, relevance and trustworthiness of its content, i hate people trying to take me for a fool.
PcPer are the same, all their reviews are suspect ^^^^ some of them also go against the grain and look completely made up.
Go with the masses, its a shame Anand who used to be my go too are becoming increasingly suspect. Toms Hardware are another one.
That ^^^^^ goes for all the other ones...
Its when you take advantage of people not knowing the difference to make it appear like your chips are more power efficient than they actually are is when it becomes misleading, that is my point.
You can bet your life Intel do not tell motherboard manufactures the CPU only uses 140 Watts, its...
Precisely, recalculating power consumption by assuming this and that so remove this and that much to come up with a number at the end based on assumptions rather than what its actually pulling at the wall is incredibly misleading.
Just as misleading as Intel's TDP ratings.
BTW, who uses...
Intel advertise their Core-X CPU's as 140 watt CPU's, yet if you go to any reviewer on the Internet the actual power consumption of the 7900X is 30% higher than what Intel rate them at.
Any reviewer that is other than Anand, who just so happen to result 1 watt under Intel's advertised TDP...
