Yes, mine does always 17.7W (in that test) with all cores at 2.8Ghz, but others can have better or worst values because of silicon lottery.

What you mean being throttled, if all cores are doing 2.8GHz all the time? 17.7W it's what the cpu needs at 2.8, it could go up to 20W, but doesn't need it. The cpu can only do 2.9Ghz single core and it's not unlocked.

I was replying to you, but the aida FPU test I linked was a reply to Burtal original post, where he is limited to 2.2Ghz in that test. If you follow the link, you'll find his original post with the details. Those posts was the first time I used aida FPU stress test, as I said to match his test...

I also did prime95 with same result and that aida test even makes the cpu hotter than prime95, just try it. Also @burtal test was limited to 2.6ghz with aida and then even drops to 2.2Ghz, so I matched his test case, as I was replying to him. Please see his post I replied to.

Mine can sustain 2.8Ghz all cores full load with P1=P2=20W (tested more than an hour): https://forums.servethehome.com/index.php?threads/topton-jasper-lake-quad-i225v-mini-pc-report.36699/page-93#post-356099

Yes, that is in my previous post and is part of the same argument, that a solid copper cube is a better thermal conductor than a hollow copper cube.

Not relevant to the topic or discussion, but this was one of the hollow block cases for PI I saw: FLIRC Raspberry Pi 4 Case

@dazagrt I'm sure we all know that heat transfer is directly proportional to the surface area size in contact to heat. Let's say your hollow cube is soldered to the die on bottom side and to the case on top side. So bottom side is closer to cpu temp. and top side is close to box temp. How heat...

Let's say you want to insulate a house (contrary of conducting heat), would you use hollow metal walls or solid metal walls? The wall thickness is the same, but metal is a better thermal conductor than air.

We are not talking about thicker material, we are comparing same thickness material, both have the same distance from A to B, but one is hollow, the other solid. What you are saying is that a hollow cube of copper is a better thermal conductor than a solid cube of copper. Same size, same...

They also look painted. Also it doesn't make sense that hollow is better than filled, more material conducts more heat faster.

Even that specific example is not perfect, as those PI blocks are usually hollow ;) But what you describe, would be the correct solution.

They should make the copper the correct thickness, adding a plate is trying to correct the mistake and it's much better than leaving a gap.

Problem people report is a gap between the cpu die and the heatsink, factory will fill that with thermal paste and that's really bad. The solution is to have the cpu die parallel and in perfect contact with the heatsink and good thermal paste. In my case the cpu was already making very good...

Yes, it lacks 4 standoffs/screws all around the cpu to level it and make the correct pressure to the heatsink. Still the fixes described in the forum work to make a very good contact and reduce heat to normal levels. From what I read we all got a very good results, only doing the tweaks...

Maybe see if one of them is failing, if you didn't already.

I've read that intel ax210 doesn't work as AP, also you can't chose the country when working as client, it will read the country from the APs. Beside that, they work very well as client. Random search: Do Intel® Wireless Adapters Support Master or AP Mode? "All current Intel® Wireless Adapters...

I wish, but no, TDP spec. is only for base frequency. Then it's what you say, turbo is only for one core and turbo freq. for all cores is not specified in those marketing intel specs. In intel site, press the (?) mark bellow the TDP: And if you press (?) under base freq.: For example N5100...

Thing is that TDP value is a bit misleading, as it is the TDP value for the cpu base clock, not for turbo clock. So we need to look at the base clock of the different models, N5100 base clock is 1.1Ghz for 6W TDP, N5105 base clock is 2GHz for 10W TDP and from what I could read N100 and N200 base...
