Performance per watt is always an interesting metric that has been largely
left alone. My Ryzen 7 5700G claims to operate within a 65W thermal
envelope, and with modern monitoring I can pretty much keep it there.
Heck, even my i7-7700 can be manually throttled down to keep it within a
certain frequency envelope so that it doesn't cook itself, because I'm not
happy with the thermal solution HP came up with.

The more important question is how slow do you want it to be?
SIMH VAX runs on a Raspberry Pi4 class machine (RockPro64) reasonably
well, if a little slow. Compiling stuff there is not an activity for
the impatient ;-)
But that host hardware is reasonably cheap, quiet (no fan) and low
power.
Kind regards,
Alex.
