    No not even close. I saw a test of the m1 pro’s two efficiency cores under full load and they used 210mw combined. Intel and AMD are hilarious behind those numbers. Mind u their efficiency cores are both stronger and in fact even with the new nodes I think apples newer chips use a bit more power to help strengthen their ecores but even at double the power per core it wouldn’t be close. The 4 performance cores also used 4 watts under full load so yeah not close on either core type.



  • Just so you know all the overcooking 2 ram slot boards are the only time ur all but guaranteed 7200xmp will work. It’s just that so little people buy them they’re not even considered despite being the best for even stock performance and they all tend to have very high quality parts unlike the ‘we know rich people will buy this bcuz it costs the most’ kind of boards above it in price that tend to actually use worse parts lmao.


  • Does that board happen to be the msi pro z790-P? If so you’re fine the people who are getting ram instability at those frequencies im 1000% sure are from their boards. More proof of this was my 13600k on a z690 board. At first it could only do 6200, than I updated the bios and suddenly 6400 was stable, a few months later my board came out with another new update, now 6600 worked and now it’s stable at 6666mhz. If it was the cpus memory controller as the problem, new bios updates wouldn’t help at all but they did because its the board you cheaped out on thats tbe issue. That’s why you go MSI when doing so because they have so much better minimum memory and vrm quality unlike the atrocious bottom tier z690/z790 boards that gigabyte and especially asus offer. They also will essentially flat out lie in that supported ram speed spec u referenced
