x5482 power & tdp

[alexey_komissarov]

Dear all,

I have cpu x5482 , which has tdp=150w (intel spec).

When I run various stress tests (aida 64, intel burn test, etc) and monitor cpu power consumption (by aida64 and also by electrical powermeter) - it never goes above 65-75w.  

What is wrong? Because I was confindent, that 150w tdp means that consumption will be about 150w and have chosen appropriate power supply unit and cpu-cooler. 
But in fact it's just ~70 w.
