Quote:One area where the Ryzen 7 2700 managed to surprise us is energy efficiency. Its multi-threaded power-draw is over 50 W lower than that of the 2700X (141 W vs 199 W), while offering not that much lower performance. The underlying reason is that 2700X boosts very high, into a region where the processor is faster, but not operating so efficiently anymore. Ryzen 7 2700 on other other hand runs at lower clock and lower voltage in this scenario, resulting in higher efficiency. Our new energy efficiency testing, which doesn't just measure power, but also takes into account how quickly tasks complete due to higher performance, shows the amazing lead of the processor. This makes the Ryzen 7 2700 the most energy-efficient processor we ever tested.
