Why won't Intel sell 15w cpu to us?
Go buy a laptop fren
but i don't want a laptop
i would assume that intel doesn't think there are enough people that would buy it to justify doing that. They sell them in bulk to big companies , if they sold them to customers they would need to spend money on packaging, marketing, individual warranties, etc. that is my guess
Undervolt it yourself.
They sell, but it's soldered in the board.
They do.
Because you already have it with higher binned chips and intel doesn't see the market for low binned chips. All of these mobile chips are literally the ones that never made the base frequency minimum at 1.3-1.4v so they get sold as cheaper mobile chips.
Why would you want such a gimped chip in a desktop?
dumb phoneposters
they are much more efficient
>the fake tdp of intelaviv
fyi that "15W" intel TDP literally translates to: hey if you run this chip locked at the base 1.0 - 1.4 GHz frequency like at 80% load then on average it will consume 15 watts.
then buy a laptop and turn it into a desktop
Then buy a raspberry pi, there literally no reason to still buy intel or x86 processors in 2018.
5W laptop CPU damn that will last like 15hrs on my battery for sure.
>the cpu is the only thing that draws power in a computer
I've got a cheapy lightweight 12" laptop with iirc a Celeron N3350 with a similar TDP (just way less compute power) and it gets over 10 hours.
It's soldered BGA package, unless you don't want to ever upgrade the CPU, simply not practical for desktops
It's actually the opposite, the i9 6 core mobile chip performs the exact same as the 8700K, but uses a lot less power.
At 5GHz, the i9 uses 90W, 8700K uses 110-130W depending on lottery.
Buy a R7 2700 or an i5 8400 then. They're top-tier chips in efficiency per core.
go buy the cheapest one cpu and undervolt it
Lowest TDP is usually T or S class CPUs which are harder to find, but are designed for desktop sockets (HTPCs or NUCs). Lowest you can get are usually 35W TDP.

>base 1.8
actually wanting a computer do do shit and not dick around with for one.
