Great that the study is based on business results with added context rather than just the traditional speeds and feeds view. Thank you!
What a great insight ! Highly relevant for the right choice of architecture for an efficient sustainable modern workspace.
Hi, great study, the 1st I’ve seen that looks at regular office usage and not gaming! I’m assuming your study was using the i7-12700k (not i7-12900k) with base E cores at 2.7 GHz, do you think the non K version at 1.6 GHz would offer even greater efficiencies?
The graph also shows the 12th gen cpu uses much higher power at idle. If you use your computer primarily for word processing and some light Internet browsing, the 12 gen cpu is less power efficient. My i7-12700 is consuming about 10 watt more than my i7-8700 at idle. That is from the wall plug. HWinfo shows a 7w difference.
