[SOLVED] Which is more power consuming at Load R5 3600X or R7 3700x?

[Hellfire_helix]

As Ryzen 3000 Chips are really power efficient I would like to know which one will consume more power while being at load?

The 3600x is 95 watts.
The 3700x is 65 watts.

They look to be about the same.

They look to be about the same.

Is that benchmark reliable?
Also how is this possible for a 8 core chip to consume similar power as a 6 core chip while being at load?

Because the same load is shared across 8 cores instead of 6 - total power consumption remains the same

What's heavier, 100lbs in one hand or 100lbs in 2 hands. With a 100% cpu load, on both cpus, using the same test software, the differences will be elsewhere, such as time executed, amount of computations etc. There's nothing saying the actual internal voltages going to each core, and what's actually used by each core individually is identical.
