Re:Intel Core i5 12600K / Core i9 12900K “Alder Lake” Linux ... by Comevius on Friday November 05, 2021 @11:42AM (#29120880)
The previous generation could use 250W at certain all core workloads, Intel just never marketed the difference between PL1 and PL2 for TDP. Most chips can only use that much power for a short time due to thermal limitation, so you need both adequate cooling and a suitable workload to use 250W, this haven't changed, the typical power consumption is however lower.
