The single core boost speed falls within the 95W TDP spec. Dual core probably as well as the anandtech article actually sees higher performance within the 95W TDP spec for many benchmarks compared to the unleashed PL2 spec.
You keep harping on false advertising for the 9900K but reality is the 5GHz spec is not the issue, it's the all core boost state they advertise nowhere.
The PL2 value, or sustained power delivery, is what amounts to the turbo. This is the maximum sustainable power that the processor can take until we start to hit thermal issues. When a chip goes into a turbo mode, sometimes briefly, this is the part that is relied upon. The value of PL2 can be set by the system manufacturer, however Intel has its own recommended PL2 values.
In this case, for the new 9th Generation Core processors, Intel has set the PL2 value to 210W. This is essentially the power required to hit the peak turbo on all cores, such as 4.7 GHz on the eight-core Core i9-9900K. So users can completely forget the 95W TDP when it comes to cooling. If a user wants those peak frequencies, it’s time to invest in something capable and serious.
That doesn't sound like the manufacturers are running PL2 out of spec. PL2 is recommended to be set basically unlimted and therefore thermally limited by defualt. Setting the PL2 value is meant for OEM's to restrict the the Turbo's for their cooling and board limitations. More then likely boards, as again the idea of the turbo is short burst of extra power usage then falling back down due to cooling limitations. They can and are suggested to limit max time at full power usage as they feel comfortable. This came out with the 8700k as the big kicker that the mobo makers could be blamed for and the feature I was talking about most retail boards come with this non-overclocking naming feature I can't remember but an actual Intel spec feature, that disables time limits on Turbo (please if anyone can think of the name tell me it's still escaping me). PL2 adjustments are for OEM, retail boards are expected to be unlocked unless they have power limitations themselves (not enough VRM's).
So 5GHz max. All core boost. None of this matters if Intel always intended to have the PL2 set to unlimited. At some point the CPU runs at 66% extra power usage and heat out put for extended and if mystery feature left on unlimited time. Now that feature being on might be up to MB manufacturers. But I am guessing not. Otherwise Intel also wouldn't be suggesting a PL2 of 210w. Which circles back on everything. All of this stuff is hidden, not mentioned, not specced out, so they don't have to support these absolutely intended operational setting when it blows up in the face. Just because Intel and more like because Intel doesn't put in their information sheets doesn't absolve them of the confusion that this CPU and to a lesser extent others place on power usage and cooling requirements.
