@@w04h even if it's the case of alot of applications that are older, may use just 1 or 2 primary cores. You're going to still end in a similar situation. Remember there was a time when Intel's turbo boost did only push 1 or 2 of it's cores depending on the platform because they took in too much power when you would try to boost all of them instead still leading to a power draw that was still higher. If you effectively remove the turbo boost function from them, sure they'll consume far less power but these CPUs are designed to be pushed hard right Dealing with massive amounts of heat. That's why the Turbo boost technology has changed so much. Also alot of reputable reviewers that I watch use super old and new testing for benchmarks and when they measure power draw they do it from the application that will measure what stretches the most from the CPU and it's idle consumption. Most large scale businesses won't be using these chips as an option and this is coming from someone who has spoken with venders such as HP , Lenovo , etc usually when your business is under a contract with them, they typically won't send you the newest hardware for a business to use because stability, compatibility, and cost. In a situation where you have people who render movies, make video games, etc. They're most likely using a platform such as AMD thread ripper or Epyc servers because of the need for more CPU power for heavy data transfers which can take an insane amount of CPU power to just transfer files. These are consumer chips and most of the sales from these things aren't going to be used for little things like typing emails and only watching KZread, etc, those consumers would most likely find a laptop that has a decent amount of power that isn't anywhere near a 13900k's power. So I can understand the argument but in terms of real world it isn't going to be the same or used that way that's why people don't test these things like this, it's for the targeted audience of who these are for or worst case scenario of these chips.

Intel is more efficient in these productivity apps. Either due to acceleration or better optimization by intel or the app developers. So if you work and game go intel, if you only game you might want to look at amd only. In gaming on avg amd is about 30% more efficient. Cpus are pretty efficient these days so it wont matter much anyway. Laptops on the other hand amd is the only choice if you aim to use battery often.

@@bigbro890 Do a simple test then. Take a complicated scene with complex light bounces and scattering within various transparent and opaque materials. You'll find that the light bounces will have a degree of variance that is far greater for gpu renders, than cpu renders. This is because the gpu cores calculate approximations much better than precise interactions, thus the photon tracing is randomized to a greater extend than cpu rendering. This also leads to more noise, even if the render itself is generated faster, so you will just shift the problem from one place to another, also why most gpu-based render applications use post-process denoising to a greater extend than cpu render applications require - again compromising the potential quality of the final render because denoising is inherently inferior to accurate first-time raw render calculation. Granted, for many people the actual quality difference isn't noteworthy enough to be an issue, or sometimes not even something you'd notice at all if you don't actively search for it. Each task is different, and different render solutions cater to different needs. On top of this there are also other advantages to cpu rendering, such as support for far greater memory capacity since it has direct access to your RAM, compared to the GPU which relies exclusively on VRAM which is still very limited even for the highest tiers of enterprise Nvidia cards, let alone consumer cards that are restricted to 24gb or less. If you render complex scenes with very high texture quality and material complexity, this too can potentially cause more issues with gpu rendering vs cpu rendering. And yes there are other differences too. And no, I do not personally choose cpu rendering because I demand this pinnacle level of quality. I just choose it because my 3D modelling and render software of choice is cpu limited, that's all. But I do appreciate the precision and final quality potential of the renders, as do my clients.

Maybe a different test you can and should do with Blender is the viewport/eevvee test instead of rendering on CPU. The viewport remaining nice and smooth while working in Blender is the number 1 thing.

Great test! I fully agree with the findings. The max power draw is only needed for deciding cooling. For the vast majority of users the CPU is 95% of the time, so the low load power draw determines the cost.

That is EXACTLY it. Using chiplets means you have to boost signal levels to move them from one chiplet to another and even at idle a PC is doing some work. But really, that's such a trivial thing I find it laughable. In all-core loads and gaming Zen 3 and Zen 4 parts like the 5800X3D, 7600X and 5600X destroy Intel parts. And for frames per watts, Techpowerup measures the 13900K at 2.13 fps/W, the 7600X at 4.47fps/W (best) and the 5800X3D at 4.1fps/W (2nd best) This data is old. In case you don't understand this data or question it, Techpowerup does THE most detailed CPU reviews. Gamer's Nexus also does SOME power analysis but nowhere near the detail of Techpowerup. Search "Techpowerup 13900K review". But here's the kicker. The 7600, 7700 and 7900 are all about to lay waste to the line of Intel parts for power consumption. In fact I just checked Techpowerup and they've reviewed the 7600 and 7700 so those are now added to the charts and the 7700 is the most power efficient CPU in all-core loads and near the top for gaming efficiency. Idle? That's your concern? Turn your PC off because the rest of the components are using as much or more than the CPU.

this is a very interesting test that provokes more investigation. It would be interesting to measure actual wall power usage over an extended time (I could do this myself if I had a power meter) for a truly real-world measurement of domestic computing costs. I've noticed my own 12900 system showing a package power draw of typically something like 23W in a quiescent state. It's only when doing something like Cinebench or prime95 that the consumption figures really shoot up (along with the fan speed). Of course, HwInfo64 isn't telling the entire story of power usage, but it's a good indicator. ETA: ah, you did the real-world wall-socket test! I commented too early. Excellent work.

Commenting this a year late, but a BIOS update can also change how much power your CPU is using while idling. For example I remember seeing ~20W idle power usage (HWINFO CPU package) on my 12600K and it turned to ~9-13W after updating BIOS.

Great way of presenting the data. Considering and including "idle" or "

Power draw in all-core, 100% workloads is quite scary on my 14700 KF (over 300W peak), but I totally agree that this is hardly a measure of how the CPU will perform in the real world. Unless all you do all day is run CPU benchmarks like Cinebench or Blender, I suppose.. :) Power limits on my board are indeed set to "no limits" at the board's factory settings and that's the whole problem. Also doesn't help that MSI have labeled the three PL-presets in the BIOS in a sightly misleading way. Even the lowest preset will set PL1 and PL2 to 253 W and it's labeled "boxed cooler". I'd like to see any Intel stock-cooler keep up with this CPU at those PL-settings, lol. The "no limits" preset is called "water cooler" or something similar, implying that you can run your CPU without power limits on a 240mm (or even a 120?) AIO. Which I could with my much less power-hungry 12600K but definitely NOT with the 14700KF. All that said: After having read up on the whole power-limit thing, I adjusted PLs, max current and voltage offset manually and the chip will now run right up to the limit of thermal throttling while drawing ~240W max and giving me the CB23 results you'd expect from an i7. All that on a 240 AiO. In the real world, the CPU never draws more than 40 or 50 W in more demanding games, sometimes peaking as high as 70 to 100W in certain circumstances. At idle and/or in desktop/browsing mode, it's very frugal and hardly ever jumps over 10W. True idle with just a sensor monitoring app open it'll sit at around 3W all the time.

I like this. Im a truck driver and a gamer and lookong to build a 1080/1440 gaming computer while limiting power for my truck. Definitely still looking at a 12600kf /3070.

I rarely put my computer to sleep as they rarely wake up properly and often leave them on to quickly resume work the next day. The power of the 7950x would be nice for encoding but the high idle power is a concern as that is 90% of the use case.

I wonder how much difference it makes to do a set amount of work instead of a set amount of hours. So converting 10,000 photos, exporting 4 hrs of video a day etc. The faster processors should take less time whilst consuming more energy whilst working. :)

The faster cpu should have paid for itself in less than a day even when you factor electricity for the whole year.

There's a point in there...

This is the highest idle measurement I have ever seen on an AMD CPU package. Weird...

The first time I saw the same conclusion was at PcWorld. At that time there was the 12th gen, but the same seems to be valid for the 13th gen, it is even better actually. The same I would like for laptops, power is more important in a laptop.

I did some testing with the 7700X manual oc 1.18Vcore 5.2ghz. Also there's a setting in the bios that forces all the other parts of the cpu (iGPU Infinity fabric, etc) to run at full speed all the time. I turned that off. My idle is around 25-30 watts cpu package. Cinebench R23 ends up at around 19700 points using a max of 110 watts in hwinfo64. Without tweaking, these newer cpu's are power hogs.

Also interesting about pugetbench scores. I really wonder what is the amount of included tests that are part of 99% of general usage of an overage photoshop user. Could be that there are some included tests that in real life are commonly used by only 1% of photoshop users, but on the other hand make the results of intel look nicer? By the way, techpowerup's photoshop custom test puts 7700X above 13900k in performance.

Unfortunately there's lots of unknowns here and I wish there wasn't. 1. If you used some testing workflows with a fixed duration(?) then depending on the type of test, there could be a problem: The faster CPU might complete more work in the same amount of time than the slower CPU and as expected use more power. 2. guru3d checked total system power consumption of the system measured directly from the wall and the idle system draw with the 7800x3D was 75W while the most efficient modern CPU from Intel, the 12600k, was at 76W. So either there is something wrong with your AMD system or the HWINFO metrics can't be trusted. Also to quote techpowerup on the subject: "We're not using the software sensors inside the processor, as these can be quite inaccurate and will vary between manufacturers." 3. Your AMD idle power draw results seem to be insanely high. Something seems wrong when one compares it with other reputable sites' results.

Came to post something similar after KZread wanted me to watch this. I trust Guru3Ds total system idle power consumption numbers over these. CPU idle power usage differences are useless if the system draws the same power from the wall anyway.

Tech notice didn't include any x3D chips, which give better performance per watts, in my observations. Is there any comparison with x3d chips ?

Great content mate, happy new year with even more great stuff from you!

I think a better way of measuring power consumption for low power draws is using a current clamp or a power meter, since even in HWinfo64, it tells you lower down that there's a power measurement deviation for ryzen of up to 200% (this is just what I've seen on 5950x), with it regularly being around 150% at around 50W displayed. but yes, that aside, I do agree with you that amd tends to suffer on desktop for idle power consumption for a current clamp, they can be had for less than $50 and work by measuring the current passing through the wire, you would just need to clamp it sround the 4 (or 8) 12V wires for the eps plugs

Hello Im working full time and have no time to let my computer "idle" when i switch it on I instatly start gaming doing some work stuff. Would u conisder Amd instead of intel for example ryzen 5 7.6 instead of intel 13.5 ??? Would love to get the answer quick I'm buying pc this week❤❤

Very nice the only thing missing is metrics when undervolted/power limited as it makes quite a big difference between the generations. It puts Intel and AMD on par in workload and you can get 90% of performance at 50% of the power often times. The new generation is quite a bit more efficient as it’s supposed to with that in effect. Idle is still significant as an issue though I hope AMD finds a way to deal maybe using efficiency cores in the future as well as they are already increasing their expertise in chiplets design. That nd gaming benchmarks for power really unfortunate Intel removed AVX 512 instructions because immigration and future gaming is supposed to benefit a lot from that as it etches closer towards simulation

A PC doesn't stand a chance against Apple silicon when it comes to power draw during video editing tasks. If that's all you need it to do I'd get the studio if you're going for pure efficiency.

gaming and many other applications types have hard spikes in utilization, it is still very very important to get a psu that can handle your full CPU.

This is what I thought as well. Even in gaming, it was really easy to add a negative offset voltage on my 12700k and remove around 50-70w during gaming, and incredible idle power usage. Meanwhile, everyone was harping about Ryzen's power efficiency, but that is only on full load which is usually only in a short time. Still, there is something about getting almost the same performance at almost half the power usage with the 7950x with the 105 eco mode. At the end of the day, both platforms are really good this generation and choose whichever you think will fit your needs!

Most of the issues with zen4 are based on their stock clocks and voltages, once you do a PBO curve or outright lower the non boost clock speeds, most of the idle power consumption numbers go down by a lot, that's pretty much what the zen4 non X SKU's are, idle clocks are almost or are a whole GHz lower than X variants, but turbo speeds are around 200mhz lower or less, zen3 didn't have this issues either out of the box, so the video is mostly flawed since with intel you can do a PL2 to 250W or underclock a zen4 chip and both will consume the same power at idle, but zen4 will keep the crown with higher loads

great job! thanks for this review/comparison ! it would be interesting to know how much total pc consumes doing those tasks ( with or without a monitor) I think on average a gpu ( depending which of course) on idle - doing something could consume around 20-60w ?? ( not gaming not rendering ). and ram. around 8 -10 watts ? fans 12watts.. ssd like 10 ? Motherboard ,,mm : around 20 w ? of course this are my'' just out of the pocket '' assumptions .. :P. so. the whole pc ( without monitor) would be consuming on average ( doing simple tasks ). 30-40 watts cpu + 50 w gpu + 20 w Motherboard ?+ 25 w ram&ssd &fans (?) = more or less 90-120 watts ?

Yeah I hate that they use rendering for benchmarks. I want to know how the chip is going to work in the view port, I didn't understand this and the system I built is good, but I would have changed to a better chip. I use blender to design but I'm not rendering that much, I spend more time designing. So what I learned later is single core performance is what I should have been paying attention too. I got an AMD 5800x, rtx 3080 12gb, 64 gb ram, m.2 drive, which isn't bad, but I can bog it down with a lot of modifiers. one good thing is I can still upgrade to a 5950x. I'm just waiting for the prices to drop some more. I think with all that I've learned in the past year I would have gotten an intel chip, they have better single core performance.

Curious about the figures you used to calculate the KW/Year figure (if it's in the video I missed it). Looking into cpus for a homelab so I'd have to figure out what would be the KW/year for 24/7/365 load of 30/40% on most cores to have a ballpark idea what the difference could be between a 7950x and a 13900k (and a 5950x and 7945hx and a 13900h too ideally, if I find any figures about those around)

AMD Eco mode measurements please? Especially with the 7900X, which is the most efficient of all at highest load, according to my calculations.

Great video and I would agree for people that solely uses the software tools tested in this video. That said, if you tune both systems to like 65 watt then the AMD architecture may be much more efficient than intel overall, I would classify applications that use the intel iGP as an outlier since its not a feature that can be used across the board and if this software is all you use then you know your answer already. (Also in some applications the Intel iGP encoding is not as high quality as just using software encoding) Both of these architectures are running far outside of their efficiency range so if this is at all important to you then tune your system, undervolt and limit to 65watt and then we see which architecture is the most efficient, also add more software if possible. Intel clearly has better power management software between applications and at idle so this gives them a massive advantage here. For myself and others we need to move away from blanket statements like "this architecture is more efficient" or "which ever CPU is better" since these days it REALLY depends on what workloads one has, for how long and with which settings/power tuning.

For Ryzen 5000 series it really depends on the CPU and utilization for workload power draw. I can't say fully yet for 7000 series. But per core power utilization I get more from my 5950x than my 5900x or my 5800x. I think that has to do with the binning. Both my 5900x and 5800x use a decent more watts per core. My 5600x is pretty close to the 5950x per core. But the point of that thing is to max frequencies. So a lot gets wasted going those last few hundred.

I feel the same. It is not about full idle but small tasks in the background. Even playing YT video on Ryzen setup draws much morre power than my intel setup. If you use your PC 12+ hours a day this can contribute to power bills.

To narrow down wattage score it would be best to use key/mouse recording program of ~8h average use for PC, including watching some KZread, maybe movie, little gaming, some workload. For motherboards to be closest possible would be using ones with same number of VRMs and ideally same VRMs. Same goes for number of fans and other peripherals. Also same power supply. So ideally record daily use on slowest, and most underclocked CPU you plan to test to make click recording and then go up the ladder of power with performance. To my memory, AMD hardware tends to be quite aggressively overvolted and people have real good results with power savings and like 5% score decrease. But that's another untapped potential for benchmarking/tuning. Personally for next PC i aim to build passively cooled design, so going down with power will be the key.

Interesting impact of idle power draw. 55W is not a tiny amount of heat, and it can heat up an insulated room quite quickly. I have a friend, running an old Zen 3 system, is actually dealing with overheating issues because he doesn't have central AC. Built him a new intel system and has not had overheating problems since.

👍 Great job. Interesting way of testing.👏 I would like to share a bit on this topic. As you stated in the topic both AMD and intel lied to us. Well, it is not actually a lie. Both companies' chips measure power consumption differently. I, myself, found that some numbers are double counted eg. Power of IGP in total chip power consumption. In laptop cases, it will be even more strange if you use Smartshift as it will add a discrete GPU power consumption into the CPU power consumption too!! I found that this is true in AMD case when using HWinfo. (I don't know about Intel) I asked in HWinfo forum. They said their program just gave the numbers AMD soc gave to them. They are not sure whether those are accurate. I am afraid that the only way to measure this accurately is to measure power consumption at the wall.
