Im still thinking about switching to Intel and obviously every single review mentions how hot this CPU can get. Thing is: This is mostly at STOCK SETTINGS and in BENCHMARKS. How about real world usage? Can anyone share his experience with this CPU and with reasonable powerlimits/undervolting? Im also planning to use my aircooler, a Noctua u12A. My goal is to keep the PC quiet, would this be possible with aircooling and a bit of fiddling in BIOS? Im cool as long as I could keep the RPM under 1000 much like I do right now on my Ryzen CPU.

    Indeed.

    I do not own a core i7 14700, and the only review of powerlimit less than 3 years old that i know is Techpowerup, Intel Core i9-14900K Raptor Lake Tested at Power Limits Down to 35 W, 2023-10-27, https://www.techpowerup.com/review/intel-core-i9-14900k-raptor-lake-tested-at-power-limits-down-to-35-w/

    It is totally possible but it will cost i-do-know-how-much perf.
