The new Intel Arrow Lake is supposed to max out at 150W, but it doesn't. And that's still almost 40% better than previous gen Intel!
So hovering around 80-90W max is pretty modest by today's standards.

That's impressive, or should I say scary? 150w is a lot of heat to dissipate... I hope those aren't laptop chips...

The 14900k is an absolute oven

No but the M4 Max is claimed to be as fast, and Intel improved their chip, so it's down from 250W for previous gen! And the M4 Max is faster.

Oh of course, the apple chips are faster, and this is likely a combination of more efficiency thanks to the newer process node and apple being able to optimize the chips and power draw much better because they make everything. Apple can also afford to use larger chips because they make a profit on the entire computer, not just the processor itself.
