How about coil whine or similar? Can you notice something if you don't have fans running nearby to mask the noise?

Which CPU cooler do you have under there? NH-C14S?

It's going to be epyc.

Nice work, I was thinking about that ever since I saw that the 3060ti/3070 FE pcbs were under 17cm.

Hey, it's been a while but do you still have that P14S-P14FP?

Ah! At first I tought you had the ASRock B550. Interesting, the Gigabyte X570 is #1 on my list ATM. I want to get a Zen 3 processor so I'm waiting a bit to order the mobo. Quoting from the original HWinfo post I linked earlier: My guess is that the formula HWinfo uses for Power Reporting...

F20b... Wait, what motherboard do you have? Also, as a matter or reproducibility, what did you use for load? Sorry I didn't ask earlier.

Thanks a lot for providing those numbers. Which CPU are you using and which bios version are you running?

After investigating this power issue with the ASRock B550, I'm now leaning towards the Gigabyte X570 I AORUS PRO WIFI instead. Although it's an X570 board, it's cheaper than the ASRock (in my market at least). I had initially discarded the Gigabyte board because of the chipset fan, however it...

100% is the target if reported power == expected power at full load, so a value around 100% is good. According to the original HWinfo post, a deviation of ±5% around that is acceptable (so 95-105%); beyond that it becomes suspicious. According to the kitguru review, on the ASRock B550 Phantom...

I was also concerned about that erroneous sensor readout. I believe this is the issue described in detail in this GN video: Around 13:41, they explain that ASRock has used the same trick on another motherboard before. IIUC, it causes the reported power usage to be lower than the actual power...
