So I have a Desktop Haswell machine (model 60) that is instrumented to measure actual DRAM power at the DIMM (with a sense resistor). We are consistently getting RAPL results roughly a factor of 2 smaller than the actual, measured results. Does desktop Haswell have a similar units issue to Haswell-EP? I wasted a bunch of time trying to decode the DRAM_ENERGY_SCALEFACTOR_MCHBAR values described in the Desktop 4th Generation Intel Core Processor Family datasheet but possibly that value in the MCHBAR is unrelated to the one exported by the RAPL interface.
