I mean, that’s fair, but the 285k has a TDP of 250 watts compared to 120. In practice, I think that people gaming or doing workstation tasks would use more power on the 285k, because typically, that’s what these will be used for anyway.
For comparison’s sake, the EPYC 7702 is a 64 core (hyperthreaded) server CPU, and it has a lower TDP. The 285k’s TDP is absolutely bonkers.
It’s decent, with the deepseek model anyway. It’s not as fast and has a lower parameter count though. You might just need to try it and see if it fits your needs or not.
