I was looking for trying to find a proper buck and there are many post with no definitive good answers like:

For some reasons I don't want t go into I run this whole circuit from regular laptop PSU which provides 19V and 6A (should be more than enough). I used a DROK branded buck so far with my RPI4 to accomplish this 19v -> 5V.

This was working but I constantly had the logs flooded with low power warnings, the thing was running like this for 4 years with a Raspberry PI 4.
Now that I switch to PI 5 I looking for some beefier solution. Someone must have found some buck which does work and provides stable voltage.![:mrgreen:]( "Mr. Green")
I seriously doubt that the PI 5 even on 100% CPU load would drain 5 amps, that must be some absolute maximum value which never even reached in practice.
