Looking for 8700 non K real life wattage and temps

[rukspuks]

Hello anyone here has an itx system with 8700 non-k? How much wattage is it taking for normal tasks? Is it running hot? I have a small case and I don't want to run my power bills to the top so any help would be appreciated.

My 8700 runs up to 70°c when I benched it, my cooler is a beefy DeepCool NEPTWIN.

 

Not sure about the watts it's pulling when all pegged at 100% (I haven't plugged my power meter yet).

 

Right now with ambiant temps of 19°c, I'm getting and average of 56°c while mining on it and HWMonitor report it's using 58-60w (not sure how accurate it is).

Could you please check wattage with only igpu running? Thanks

I always use the iGPU (my dual screen setup is : 1060 to one monitor and iGPU to the second monitor).

 

I'll try to get the power meter plugged in later.

Thank you so much!

you just gotta remember that TDP is the info about heat moved to cooler, you add max 10w of real usage for computing and you have total power usage, 65w tdp is just a loss in energy

Hey, have you done it?

can you undervolt non k? if so drop the volatage to 1.10, and at stock settings it runs cooler, mine runs stable at 1.08 anything lower on stock settings crashes. if you cant change voltage, well nm this.

Sorry, totally forgot!!

 

I'm getting between 167 and 174 watts at full load (CPU mining, haven't tried anything else yet) with the temps averaging 72c (lowest was 68c and peak was 74c).

 

That's with my GTX1060 removed (when it's in but not used, I'm getting 10-15w more).

 

You have to keep in mind my system has 5x 3.5in HDD, 6x 120mm fans and a few RGB strips (lowering all fans to low on the fan controller gives me 5-6w lower across the board).

 

With the 1060 (also mining) and the fans at full, my total usage tops at 296w (averages between 293 and 295) and temps go up to around 76c (peaks of 80c).

Hmm Thanks bro!

 

Anandtech seems to be Quoting a lowering range. I doubt that a 65 TDP CPU will cross 100W though

No problem!

 

HWMonitor did show peaks of 102.4w ... not sure how precise it is but it does fluctuate a little with the clocks (it shifts between 4 and 4.1 Ghz, with a peak at 4.5) ;

 

 

That screenshot is with my 1060 also mining, and it adds to the system heat;

 

 

When benchmarking with something like Superposition or 3DMark, the CPU boosts all the way up to 4.6Ghz and the temps stay under 50c, with a total consumption 230w (with the GTX1060 in the system of course).

 

All the above numbers are with the stock clocks and stock voltages, as @O9B0666 said, lowering the voltage will help with heat and consumption, I'll test that later if I have time!
