Performance per watt is always an interesting metric that has been largely
left alone. My Ryzen 7 5700G claims to operate within a 65W thermal
envelope, and with modern monitoring I can pretty much keep it there.
Heck, even my i7-7700 can be manually throttled down to keep it within a
certain frequency envelope so that it doesn't cook itself, because I'm not
happy with the thermal solution HP came up with.
