People complaining about Intel CPU pulling 300 Watts and then this...

Only to trash on Intel. When AMD is using equally high amounts under load they tend to ignore that and using 300 W is fine, yet when Intel is pulling 300... No, no, not good, bad Intel, bad.

But yes Hotz, that's an excellent observation and great point!
