AMD Athlon 3000G review -
Power Consumption
Power Consumption
We show energy consumption based on a the entire PC (motherboard / processor / graphics card / memory / SSD). This number depends and will vary per motherboard (added ICs / controllers / wifi / Bluetooth) and PSU (efficiency). Keep in mind that we measure the ENTIRE PC, not just the processor's power consumption. Your average PC can differ from our numbers if you add optical drives, HDDs, soundcards etc.
Temperatures
The reason we do not table up temperature results is that we'd need to apply the same cooling over and over on all platforms. Also, coolers (RPM) react differently to TDP and variables like BIOS. Therefore we simply plot a temperature stress test. Good news btw, AMD is no longer making a distinction between Tdie and Tctl (offset for fan activity). So there is just one variable to monitor, ergo what you see is what you get.
