That’s interesting, I’ve basically flipped flopped every build I’ve done, but I don’t recall AMD having specific restrictions on my last build. It was akin to intels I thought at the time.
They’re not for you. If you want to pump 500W into your CPU, AMD will gladly let you do so. But you did so with your own understanding of the risks.
Those specifications are for motherboard manufacturer defaults. Defaults should always be sane and safe. 14th gen Intel motherboards are shipping with no power limit and increased turbo boost durations out of the box. Those can work, but requires really good cooling that the motherboard have no way of knowing if their users will 100% of the time have watercooled PCs.
People have been “fixing” those Intel CPUs by underclocking them where they should always have been in the first place. That shouldn’t be underclocking, that should be the stock reference setting.
Ah, so a parallel would be out of the box OC graphic cards then? Amd provides the right limitations for it to be stable under most conditions while Intel says up to 30% even though 80% would reach 10% boost for example?
GPUs I imagine have the advantage of pairing chips vs mobos being roll of the dice silicon.
