Now redo the tests with like a -20 curve optimizer on the ryzens and then you'll see how efficient AMD can actually get.

Just don't look at idle consumption tho, AM5 architecture sucks ass at it.

Finding optimal CO values that are long-term stable across all workloads (namely: idle) is such an enormous PITA though X_X

True, it's trial and error. But if you are not looking for that last 0.1% even a -10 is decent and is very unlikely to cause any issues.
