Noticed on my 14700k with strix z790-h the power limit 2 is set to over 4000 so basically uncapped should I manually set it to 253w or whatever the default is, by doing this will I lose much performance?

    will I lose much performance

    you lose performance in benchmark/Rendering ,… but not much in gaming/regular tasks,…

    anyways , using Liteload mode better than powerlimiting imo

    I have my 14700K limited to 253W. Unless you bought your CPU only to run benchmarks 24/7 you won’t notice a difference in performance. It will use less power though which means less heat. When set to 253W my CPU will run at 5.5GHz in games on all cores so still a beast.
