Intel officially launched the tenth-generation Core desktop processor at the end of April, which is the Core i-10000 series codenamed Comet Lake-S. The flagship Core i9-10900K has achieved a 10-core 20-thread, 5.3GHz acceleration frequency. How long can a frequency like 5.3GHz last? Intel recently released relevant data. The duration of a 56-second real man is really not short.
AMD and Intel will announce TDP power consumption when they release processors. This power consumption is actually thermal design power consumption, which does not represent the real power consumption. Power consumption depends on the PL (Power Limit) indicator. It can be divided into multiple levels. In general, PL1 is equal to TDP power consumption, power consumption when maintaining the basic frequency.
PL2 is the power consumption when maintaining the acceleration frequency. This index can represent the power consumption of the CPU at high frequencies (although not yet the limit power consumption). Generally, the PL2 power consumption is about 1.25 times the PL1 power consumption.
On Comet Lake-S processors, PL2 power consumption and PL1 power consumption are no longer a fixed ratio. According to the latest documents released by Intel, the PL2 power consumption of the tenth generation Core processor is less than 20% higher than PL1, and more is 1 -2 times, the TPU website has compiled specific specifications as follows:
Among the above products, the most exaggerated proportion of PL2 power consumption is the 35W low-power version of the Core i9/i7-10x00T series. The PL1 power consumption is 35W, and the PL2 power consumption is 123W, which is 3.5 times the former.
There are 65W Core i9-10900 and Core i7-10700K processors, PL2 power consumption 224W is more than 3 times that of PL1 65.
The Core i9-10900K’s PL1 power consumption is 125W, but the PL2 power consumption has reached 250W, which is doubled. The Tau duration is 56 seconds, which means that it can maintain a power consumption of 250W for 56 seconds so that the Core i9 -10900K runs on the acceleration frequency for a long time.
In addition, the Tau time of the three K series processors is 56 seconds, which is also the key to their higher performance.
