Don't worry Steve, I watch the the reviews fully. I just think that manufactures need to advertise the absolute maximum power a CPU can draw. If you end in a situation that you have a 600W PSU with a 10900K on an out-of-spec mobo paired with some idiotic 2080Ti which eats 350W, looking at spec which says 125W when in reality you could be hitting the PSU at 100+% (with peripherals) and get flaky performance or outright damage. Yes, decent solutions will not cause damage, but I know, you know, we all know that people literally use 30 PSU's because they do not know better or their SI is just screwing them over. As such, advertising a chip which can go well above the TDP creates potential issues which can sour first-time buyers (into bleeding edge enthusiast space).

I just wish there was a check-settings.exe tool so I could know what my evga z370 ftw is doing for sure. It doesn't tell me what the power spec is and it seems like frequencies don't drop to base, but wish a tool confirmed it.

The best way for me to consume Steve's content: Working on porting a costume from Resident Evil 2 to Resident Evil 3 while listening to Steve's voice in the background. Just perfect!

I don't care if I'm supposed to watch this whole video it's obviously about Warhammer 40,000 because you're talking about the Tau oh and I'm definitely going to rage about it

Ok, so I think I finally understand Tau? It's just the period of time the CPU will run at Turboboost. Though I still don't understand where the word Tau even came from.

I haven't watched it all but I'm excited for the PL1 and PL2 explanations because I have no idea in bios what a limit of 1-4095 means (Asus X299 tuf MK2)

Personally I prefer review that give unlimited TDP to the CPU, because that's how I tune my CPU. But I respect GN position on testing a stock CPU setting.
