Intel 10th Gen Core "Comet Lake" Desktop Processor CPUID, TDP, and cTDP Revealed
Internal documents of Intel's 10th generation Core "Comet Lake" processor family, leaked by momomo_us, reveal the CPUID, TDP, and configurable-TDP values of the various desktop SKUs. Intel broadly classifies Comet Lake by core-count and companion iGPU tier. The 10-core Comet Lake die ships with 125 W, 65 W, and 35 W TDP, for the K/KF, locked, and T-SKUs, respectively.
For the desktop Comet Lake-S, there are only two iGPU tiers, GT2 (iGPU present in UHD 630 flavor), or completely disabled (denoted as GT0). The charts detailing the non-Turbo clock speeds reveal that the presence or absence of iGPU has no impact on TDP, cTDP, or CPU frequencies. The "Comet Lake" 10-core + GT2 silicon is listed with a CPUID of A0655h, while the 6-core + GT2 and 4-core + GT2 variants share the A0653h CPUID.

I can't believe the Tdp and Ctdp which in themselves are total nonesense equals a news piece on it's own , it's Brazen Bs that I ,if I were intel would have buried in the footnotes.
:laugh:
And if you worry about thermals, a locked CPU coupled with an H chipset will keep in the 65W ballpark anyway.
It's very disingenuous. Borderline dubious, well it's worse than that IMHO.
You would think Pl2 was a dirty word.
Shouldn't take our kind to inform.
Of course people make it out to be worse, look at 3700X 140 watts vs 157 watt, 9900K. It's laughable a 14 watts difference.
9900K drops to 4.4Ghz to fit in 95 watts +14 watts more power than 3700X 4.2Ghz, if it were 4.2Ghz vs 4.2Ghz it would be 140 watts vs 140 watts.
The only reason they are pushing 125+ watts now is because of the 4.9Ghz mark.
Obviously when voltage is raised power is raised to the power of 3, for 10% overclock, 1.1*1.1*1.1 you get 33% more power.
If AMD could do this their TDP will also jump by the same 33%, that is all.
1. Power hog Infinity Fabric which has been fixed in Renoir;
2. X570 chipset raised power draw.
Those figures are not CPU to CPU straight comparisons.
And yes, my less informed friends ask me before building a new PC.
who said everyone cares, your saying, sorry implying no one cares, it is obviously somewhere between, just like not everyone has a helpful friend like you.
if no one really cared the likes of tesla wouldn't be going well, perspective, there is more than one.
People imply that because Intel doesn't print all fine detail on the box, they're somehow misleading customers.
When I point out the info is actually available, you cry "but average Joe doesn't know how to get it".
All I said is average Joe probably doesn't even care about that. They're probably not going to buy the unlocked parts anyway.
Basically it's people implying there's a problem before there's as much as a hint of a problem in the real world. Kinda annoying for me.
I was recently helping a user with his new Comet Lake Core i7-10750H laptop.

While running Cinebench R20, check out the beastly power consumption. AVG TEMP throttling kicks in almost immediately.
So much for the Intel 45W TDP spec. A peak of 94.2W is getting kind of crazy for a laptop.
His CPU was pegged at 95°C for the entire run.
