Power Consumption & Thermal Testing With The Core i9 7900X On Linux

Written by Michael Larabel in Processors on 29 June 2017 at 10:50 AM EDT. Page 4 of 6. 19 Comments.

OpenSSL runs very well on the Core i9 7900X.

While the average CPU temp for the Core i9 7900X runs up to 71~75C on average with the tested coolers. The Noctua heatsink is doing a good job keeping the peak temperatures lower than the i11.

While the average power use for the i9-7900X is at 236 Watts compared to 113 Watts with the i7-770K Kabylake or Ryzen 7 1800X.

But on a performance-per-Watt basis, the Skylake-X CPU did come out in front still.
