I have FX 8320 which is 125W. However, when i run games the TDP goes upto 56W and not higher than that but i checked some website and it shows that it goes upto 190W... I don't know what's going on.. Please help me
Thank you

I think your a little confused as to what TDP is. The TDP rating is the maximum measure of heat the cpu can handle . If yours is lower that means your cooling is good and everything is fine. It is not a measure of power.
