News Intel's new 35W CPUs aren't much slower than their 65W counterparts — Core i5-14600T exhibits 6% lower performance than Core i5-14600 in Geekbench...

But also i5-14600k, stock or power limits removed = pretty much the same as the 7950x in efficiency, it does a little better than the 14900k.

My point was that efficiency won't improve as much on a lower core-count CPU, as you reduce the power limits. It will improve, but not by the same proportion as a higher core-count model, like what you previously showed.

It is a timed turbo right now on intel (and on AMD the same way) , timed by how fast your cooler gets saturated and cuts off the CPU.
Just as your example from buildzoid, if you have a cooler that cools more than 300W 24/7 then it will boost indefinitely.
If you have a 200W cooler it will boost to 253W (or whatever you have set as max limit) only for a few seconds under heavy load and much longer on light loads, until it will have to go down to let the cooler cool off again.

That's absolutely not timed turbo at all it's thermally limited turbo if you don't have a sufficient cooler. Until the release of ADL Intel always had timed PL2 as stock behavior on all of their CPUs.
