For example, a laptop's cpu cooling system may be designed for a 20 W TDP, which means that it can dissipate (either via an active cooling method such as a fan, a passive cooling method via natural convection, via heat radiation all three modes of heat transfer) 20 watts of heat without exceeding the maximum temp. for the chip. The TDP is typically not the most power the chip could ever draw ,but rather the maximum power that it would draw when running real applications.            So it is power dissipation bro.It is wastage isn't it?</blockquote>
