Power Draw and Temperatures

Despite having eight cores to power the fact that our peak temperature reading never passed 80°C shows that the Intel Core i9-9900K isn’t a power hog, and our system power draw results back this up. Under 300W even when overclocked is hugely impressive. This low power draw is particularly highlighted in the stock results, although it’s odd that undervolting the i9-9900K didn’t really help the temperatures or power draw.
