Intel Core i7-6700K & i5-6600K “Skylake” Processors Review

Core i5-6600K Power Consumption and Temperatures


Power Consumption

To measure power consumption, we use a killawatt meter and measure the total system power draw at the wall. We run three different scenarios for 5 minutes and take the average reading, these are Windows desktop idle, AIDA64’s system stability test and Prime95’s blend test.

Temperatures

To measure temperatures we run three different scenarios for 5 minutes: Windows desktop idle, AIDA64 Engineer system stability test and Prime95 Blend system load. We take the average maximum core temperature for AIDA64 and Prime95 and take the average minimum core temperature for desktop idle.

The i5-6600K runs extremely cool; there could be some discrepancies here, such as better TIM spreading during heatsink application.
