    Alder Lake and PL question

    Hi! I’m thinking of a system based on the i7 12700 (65w) but I have been told that motherboards based on z690 are set to PL 1 = 125W by default and no change in lower -actually the stock- wattage (65w) is possible. So is it true or will I have to switch to a motherboard with another chipset (B660-H610-H670) in order to try the cpu in multiple power adjustments ? Thanks in advance.

    sorry - all that mentioned hardware is ‘brand new’ (690 chipset, LGA1700 socket, 12th gen CPU) and I simply haven’t had a chance to play with any of it.

    reckon that will be a common response and maybe Google will be your best chance of progressing further.

      sadly, as suspected, not getting much traction here.

      if Google isn’t much help, I’d try the retail shop you are thinking of getting it from.
      having sold some, they be in a better place to offer advice.

      also, the manufacturer of the motherboard you have shortlisted, talk to their help line and see what they can tell you.

        @stuFFb34 - sorry, as feared, not much traction on this one.

        hopefully you got some answers from Google.
