I own a locked 65W TDP i7 8700.About prime95, the behavior of locked Intel chips is very different from unlocked chips. Your argument would stand if you were upset with why a locked chip sustains a tdp far above advertised figures.
- Wanna guess what my stock sustained power usage in CB15 is on MSI Z370M Gaming Pro? ---> 95W
- Wanna guess stock sustained power usage in Prime 95? ---> 120W
Fix throttling issue when use 8700 cpu to run Prime95 burning test.
