That's great if it works for you. However, a lot of us don't want the bigger power bill. It also has the problem of heating everything up.
I like CPUs with lower TDPs
No "old i7" as I suggested, is going to meaningfully increase the temp of your room if it has any cooling solution in place.
Your stubbornness around a perfectly practical solution is absurd. I won't bother convincing you further -- it's the obvious cost effective solution.
The problem is it isn't cost effective with electricity. You can pick up a CPU that is more efficient.
I'm not saying your wrong but what your describing is not great for some people including myself.
Your not wrong but there are also trade offs
It is still by far most cost effective.
Your argument amounts to nothing.
