Right? I was told a custom PC was good as a space heater. Stupid modern hardware

You can buy modern Intel i9s to replicate your experience

Nah, modern hardware is bonkers on thermals again. A 4090 with i9-12900K is going to net you 700 watts of TDP in stock. That's like half of what you can even pull from the wall. Even at the low end for the latest generations, you're looking at around 200W combined TDP. And then as if that wasn't enough, they squeeze that shit in laptops! Laptops! This is absolutely nuts.
