Would be nice if they included the average current power consumption, per chip and total. It's a hell of a reduction in any case, but if the total is a drop compared to other power consumption then it's just taking a few drops out of the bucket.

    I think it’s more than we expect - these chips get pretty hot when under load, and we know performance then throttles when hot. Power = heat, so less power means less heat which should mean more optimum performance for longer

    But yeah I’m no expert so I don’t actually know. Does a 96% drop in power mean similar drop in heat ??

    I don't know the exact formula, but there will be a significant drop in heat when your components power consumption goes down by 96%.
