Question about watts and LinX testing

I have a new HTPC setup I just built and have some questions about the G620 chip...

When I LinX test my OC'ed 2500K build, RealTemp shows the wattage as about 120w at it's highest; when I test my G620, RealTemp only shows max watt draw as 30w? As a 65w TDP chip, I assumed it would be much higher... Or am I missing something?
 
CPUs tend to use "family" TDP numbers for easier cooling designs. And your G620 is in the bottom end, so it might actually be well below the family TDP rating.
