In related Alder Lake news, the Lenovo China gaming desktop product planning manager, also known as
Wolstame (via
HXL), shared a screenshot showing an undisclosed CPU running AIDA64’s stress test. According to the screenshot, the processor’s temperature averaged 86ºC, with 248W of power consumption, and peaked at 93ºC, with 255W of power consumption.
Although we can’t confirm which CPU is this, its power consumption leads us to believe it’s one of Alder Lake K series processors, which is
said to have a 241W PL2.
Well there are so many leaks about Alder Lake processors that Intel should just go ahead and announce them officially in my opinion.
