Executing a program similar to AIDA64 can reveal the areas where your CPU is reducing performance...

I've seen reports that it draws around 200 watts at 5 ghz. But keep it running on turbo only TS until you manage to regulate temperatures with a more effective cooler, for example.

The discussion involves checking performance metrics and understanding cooling needs for overclocking. The speaker is seeking advice on temperature readings and the impact of throttling, while also comparing CPU testing environments.

That's a valid observation, though it seems related to the additional voltage now applied by the CPU and factors such as LLC. I believe the main concern is simply verifying the stability of the overclock at the desired vcore before proceeding. If you can handle a 5GHz overclock in tests like Prime95 without exceeding around 95 degrees, then it's likely within safe limits. It's always wise to test overclocks first to establish your baseline performance.

and according to what I understand, it only uses default turbos up to around 5,0 ghz... therefore the 4,7 you receive is actually the turbo...
