then prove it, show where the errors are, its not that hard.
oh wait, you cant, and more then likely wont, and probably never will
Of course I can, it's not that hard. I don't get why you are asking me to do it, but I'll do it anyways.


Here you go. If you don't understand how that graph is impossible to be correct, ask someone that understands voltage curves. He will explain it to you.

Regarding HUB


Too bored to explain how this is wrong, but if you don't get it just ask and ill explain.
 
. I don't get why you are asking me to do it,
because you made that claim, there for, you need to prove it, not me.

where is the error? high light the error that you see or explain it. . the hub graph,uses 2 cpus, that arent even in the tpu graph..

again, you made the claim, there fore its up to you to show where the error is.

Nah, thank God it's not on me actually. Hub himself admitted on his Twitter that the graph is wrong because he was using locked voltages.

But if it's not immediately obvious to you how these numbers literally cannot be correct I can't help with that, you are lacing the knowledge. The graph shows an efficiency increase as you are upping the power which is just not possible going from 50 or 75w. It's just fundamental physics. Efficiency should be taking a big hit, and yet it doesn't.

ok, then screen shot it, and post it, i dont have twitter, so i cant see it
what does voltages have to do with anything, when one graph uses cpus, that dont seem to be on the other ?

it is obvous, the cpus om hub, arent in the tpu graph !!!!

bottom line, you still havent proved your claim that 70% of TPUs data is bad. cause you cant

As I've said, you don't understand the voltage / power scaling, that's why you can't tell why that graph is wrong.

I did not say 70% of their data is wrong. I said some of their numbers are wrong by 70%. Which means, instead of eg. 10,they are showing 17.

Did you link the wrong thing? because the TPU link is just Cinebench MT scores.

Pretty sure all they did for their power scaling test was limit the PL1/PL2, but I don't think I've read the article since it came out and it's late.

The HUB one is obviously wrong for many reasons (this was before they started measuring power off EPS12V).

No, it's the right link. It's the power scaling of a 12900k. The numbers are off by up to 70% in some of them measurements.
 
For crying out loud, why don't they just use the dual arm mechanism from the X-series platform?
Given they use the same "bracket" mounting holes as LGA1700, I bet beside cost it could also be related to the socket footprint to not interference with the existing coolers, especially given it potentially be sort of a short lived socket. IMO using the RL version should be good enough to not making stuff like HBC noctua cooler being needed for best performance

So you're just saying the scores are lower than they should be then?

This doesn't make their numbers wrong per se as none of it was made up. It does mean they should have investigated to find out why their scaling was off though. I'm guessing jacked up voltage due to dumb default BIOS settings though given that the lightly/single threaded results look right. It would have provided some helpful information for people running that platform early on. Unfortunate that this was never addressed, but it reminds me of the Anandtech scaling article that was never updated to use correct power consumption.

Well I'm not suggesting that they are lying, but yeah the numbers are completely off.

At 65w the score should be around 18k, at 125w it should be 23.5k.

What I find weird about it is that even at a glance they should have been able to tell that something is wrong. Efficiency scales up with power between some of their numbers which is absurd. Also they have the 12600k achieving the same score at the same power which is also messed up

At the linked screen cap, at 65W it is 18265 and at 125W 22818 which isn't far off and isn't unreasonable for run to run difference with maybe some minor stuffs running at background, and that isn't 70% difference..

I'm talking about the first link from TPU. You are probably talking about HUB's graph. That one is also wrong. A 13900k at 125w scores 31-32k, not 22. It scores 22k at 65w.

where are the reference of these no. comes from? don't say from someone's single chip with undervolting
 
There is no undervolting involved. I've tested my chips and lots of reviewers have verified the numbers I'm giving you.

For example

https://www.club386.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Wattage-Comparison-02C5Hk9NKZFrktfm.png

You have the chip, why don't you actually try it yourself?
I have the 14900k, which have a lower VF curve and boost limits, and I don't bother to test with the old days VF curve that a 13900k might have to verify. Just to say, with the latest fixed bios, without any thinkering and undervolting, the 14900k of mine got 36k at 253W, much like what Buildzoid did, and it is logical to think that a stock 13900k shouldn't get that scores the old days reviews gets with the new, intel spec LLC

Now lock it to 125w and try to reproduce hub's results.

that is a useless analogy, using what essentially a 13900KS with much lower VF curve to lock to 125W don't mean a thing.

Chip to chip variation in VF curve by default at max PL limit showed quite a broad range of R23 marks, up to like 1500 mark AFAIK among friends using the same board and same SKU, using an 14900k to replicate 13900k? that would mean 50mv+ difference in voltage at same frequency, thus swinging the score a lot as lower the PL limit, it will hit the limit easier with same voltage. And now this will have greater effects on the result than the alledged voltage locked board HUB is using

Dude what the heck are you talking about? Your "13900ks" isn't 50% better than a 13900k, and yet youll score a 50% higher score cause hub's scores are just flat out wrong. I mean he admitted himself they are wrong, what the hell are you on about?

Do you even know what he says he think he was wrong about? It’s that his MSI board seems to be aggressive on voltage with power limit, and in layman’s term, it’s having a different. V/F behaviour. So a sustained higher voltage will roll off the score as it hits the power limit with less current, hence less performance.

Now after all these microcode fixes especially with the… V/F behaviour where motherboard vendors are using a low LLC to under volt the CPU to some extent, causing the voltage drop more and the cpu detects and call for a higher voltage to compensate for stability.

Now after the fixed bios we saw a big difference in how the CPU performs under the same PL limit. Like mine and buildzoid and I recall some on the YouTube channels showing dropped from 38-39k to somewhere 34-36k, that’s a result of simply fixing the load line behaviour to Intel spec. How would I, using a now fixed bios, just power capping the different SKU with different build in VF curve and boost clock limit be anywhere remotely meaningful for comparison? Use some logic.

And in hindsight, he admits it’s off compared to others using asus MB, which we now know all didn’t follow Intel’s guideline and they are essentially comparing efficiency for various power limit with different vendor’s flavour of tuning, none being what the Intel profile should behave, so it is very logical to say it’s just the result of difference in board brands and design choices, and not what a real stock 13900K should be, and thus none are really wrong, or better to say, all are wrong in terms of review credibility.

That's what he thinks it is, but it's not. It's the same issue TPU had on their own graph. MSI board on auto used to have fixed voltage for the CPU. Power limiting doesn't drop the voltage even though it's running lower clocks. That's why their efficiency remains steady across different power limits.

My point here though is that his numbers are so obviously off that it makes no sense for him not to have spotted it. Seeing a score of 22k at 125w is an obvious red flag. For context, a 12900k at 125w scores 24k. How can someone possibly think the 13900k would be slower, lol.

Remember, gnexus made a video about linus putting obvious flawed numbers in his reviews and said that it shouldn't be happening. Well, it's happening here.

You also need to remember that on auto is what reviewers should do, as they normally use the same brand of boards over different platforms, if MSI locked for Intel, they also is locked for AMD, so still kinda valid for cross platform comparison and for ppl using those boards. As long as they are publishing what boards/memory they are using I don't see the problem there. You won't know if using Asus will have some extra MCE or so which say, burns the X3D chips.

Your arguement is kinda invalid, where you get the 12900k at 125W from? and how will one know if it is the VF curve of the 13900k is higher than the 12900k across the board? they are designed for 241W and 253W TDP respectively, if running in max designed TDP don't show up weirdness like 13900k slower than 12900k it isn't that obvious.

Anyway it is way off topic of this thread so I will stop this line of derail here

Dude.... Guy himself admitted the numbers are wrong.
