With my new processor in place, I've done a lot of stress testing on three different coolers, AIO and Air coolers.
And i have noticed that my CPU is drawing up to 281W, but i was under the impression it had a max pull of 253w. Anyone know why it exceeds it?
Can it be because my RAM is using X.M.P? I have not overclocked my CPU, but can it be some setting that boosts it somewhere that I've overlooked or something?
I'm just wondering, it might not be an issue that it goes this high, but i haven't configured it to do so, and i don't want to put unnecessary stress on it.

Intel I7-13700K 3.4ghz
