Hi everyone,
For my new build I've settled on going with an AMD EPYC 7002 series processor. I nearly bought the 7282 for having a low power rating with great performance. But then I noticed a strange thing about the benchmarks in the STH reviews and now I'm totally confused. The 7302P appears to be way lower on all power measures, even though it has a higher TDP advertised!
The 7282 is officially rated at a 120W TDP, and the benchmark on STH was reported as follows:
On the other hand, the 7302P is officially rated at 155W TDP, but then the STH benchmark looks like this:
Who's wrong? AMD? STH? Or are both right in different ways and I'm somehow misunderstanding something?
Any help will be much appreciated!

The 7282 is officially rated at a 120W TDP, and the benchmark on STH was reported as follows:
- Idle Power (Performance Mode): 113W
- STH 70% Load: 224W
- STH 100% Load: 262W
- Maximum Observed Power (Performance Mode): 319W
On the other hand, the 7302P is officially rated at 155W TDP, but then the STH benchmark looks like this:
- Idle Power (Performance Mode): 99W
- STH 70% Load: 169W
- STH 100% Load: 198W
- Maximum Observed Power (Performance Mode): 221W
