This it not what I am referring to. I am referring to the chart posted in their official community post, most recently in June [1]. The chart is labelled "Intel Recommendations: 'Intel Default Settings'" (sic). Notice how "Baseline" is incomplete, and so is "Extreme". Also notice a bunch of notes saying "Intel does not recommend baseline" included on their "recommendations" chart. There's more of little gotchas like that if you pay attention. Also note that this chart has been quietly revised at least once as I have a version from back in April that was less stringent and less guarded with notes than it is now.
>Notice how "Baseline" is incomplete, and so is "Extreme".
Yeah, you still haven't read the specifications.
Please read the fucking specifications if you are going to partake in discussions concerning specifications.
Extreme is "incomplete" because those specifications apply and only apply to Raptor Lake i9 SKUs. "Baseline" is incomplete and not recommended because "baseline" does not exist in the specifications.
What's more, "performance" also does not exist in the specifications per se. Most of it is actually the specifications copied verbatim, except for PL1 which is 125W for the concerned SKUs according to specification and actually noted as such by Intel in that chart.
The chart also excludes other important information, such as the PL2 time limits (56 seconds for the SKUs in the chart), the max core voltage rating of 1.72V, and AC/DC load lines and associated calibration.
Again: Please read the fucking specifications. You are contributing to the media sensationalism and emotional chest thumping, which is all worthless noise.
