Specs

In terms of specs, the locked 65 W processors follow suit as their unlocked K/KF counterparts, featuring the same core counts, threads, and cache memory sizes.

Where they differ is the clock speeds and of course the power draw, the new locked CPUs will have lower base / boost clocks, and they come with a 65 W TDP as opposed to 125 W on their unlocked counterparts.
