Read also the second paragraph of my letter 
There I explained why you are seeing different results in reviews, namely that the motherboard you are using almost always ignores Intel’s specs (MSI. Asus, Gigabyte, etc. They have been doing this for years). The tweaker also uses such a motherboard, so it makes sense to see such results. After all, according to Intel’s specifications, a PL2 (power limit) of 253 watts should be set and the Tweakers admit your motherboard doesn’t have that limit, because they say you have to set it manually. Your motherboard manufacturer should do this for you
However, they don’t, as they prefer to beat the competition in terms of performance. After all, you will have a slightly lower value like Asus’ MSI, for example, but you will consume much less and therefore be more efficient, which is obviously not possible at all.
Grab one of those motherboards and read the standard power limit. You will notice that it is “never” (there are exceptions that confirm the rule) at 253 watts for the Raptor Lake, but at 2048 watts or 4096 watts. And yes, you will already see a high consumption in the reviews, as this CPU is limited only to the available cooling, so it will consume quite a lot until it reaches 100 ° C. And besides, the reviewers are also “surprised” that the temperature of this The CPU is small. Yes, it makes sense if consumption is unlimited, and the temperature is the only limit, who would have thought it … ..
And that’s the problem, the motherboard manufacturer’s “standard” doesn’t match Intel’s specifications. And so on Intel “Stock”, or for example HP OEM machines using Intel stock settings, something other than “MSI Stock” or “Asus Stock”.
