Tom's Hardware has been doing excellent power consumption analysis for years and they measured the 2990WX with PBO (factory overclocking) enabled to consume 500W in torture loop. https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/amd-ryzen-threadripper-...
Hoping to see AMD continue to push the HEDT threshold. Let the server market have their underclocked power-efficient processors. Though to be honest if things go much further I'm going to need a custom waterloop next generation.
