All product specs are lies. The CPU cooler in this computer claims it

The TDP figures given by Intel and AMD may be given in "Watts" but they
don't correspond to actual watts of power consumed by the processor,
they're calculated mumbo-jumbo, then the cooler manufacturers base their
recommendations on the CPU manufacturer numbers, so it's lies all the
way down ...

How hard can it be to quote the TDP as the amount of power the CPU uses (which is the same as the amount of heat it gives off)?
