Intel · Raptor Lake Refresh · LGA1700
The Intel Processor 300 is an 2-core Raptor Lake Refresh processor for the LGA1700 socket, rated 46 W with a 46 W boost ceiling. What matters for a motherboard is the middle figure: it settles at about 46 W in a sustained all-core load, which is a light load for a VRM.

Chosen by capacity score rather than by price bracket: each of these keeps the processor under a third of the board's sustained power capacity.
The cheapest board here that still leaves the Intel Processor 300 real headroom.
Intel Processor 300 draws 46 W of 143 W

Every LGA1700 board in this database runs the Intel Processor 300 without throttling it. At 46 W sustained it simply does not ask enough of a modern VRM to matter, so choose a board on its ports, memory support and price rather than on its power stages.

Raptor Lake Refresh parts share a memory controller and a power-delivery contract, so a board that handles one of them handles its siblings at the same power level. The number that changes between models is sustained draw, and that is the number the ranking above responds to. Released in 2024, the Intel Processor 300 sits at 46 W.
