Yeah, it was a long day yesterday and I must've been exhausted - because my brain saw rows of "125W" in TFA's table, but looking at it today, that column is "PBP", and then there's another column with more meaningful values along the lines of what you've shared. Now I'm wondering, what's PBP? Processor Base Power, is apparently an Intel-specific term introduced with 12th generation Alder Lake chips, and it's meant to convey the thermal energy which must be dissipated when said CPUs are running at their base frequency. https://liliputing.com/pbp-vs-tdp-intel-changes-power-consum... Thank you brucethemoose for helping clarify this for me! |

I believe the confusion is intentional on Intel's part. They want to suggest typical max power is 125W, when thats not the case at all, especially on modern motherboards that will hold boost clocks indefinitely.
