Windows 7 Aero sitting at the desktop (1280x1024 32-bit) with all windows closed and drivers installed. Multi-monitor: Two monitors connected to the tested card, both using different display timings.

Idle: Windows 7 Aero sitting at the desktop (1280x1024, 32-bit) with all windows closed and drivers installed.Our results were based on the following tests: Power consumption results of other cards on this page are measurements of the respective reference design. We chose Crysis 2 as a standard test representing typical 3D gaming usage because it offers the following: very high power draw high repeatability is a current game that is supported on all cards because of its DirectX 9 roots drivers are actively tested and optimized for it supports all multi-GPU configurations test runs in a relatively short time and renders a non-static scene with variable complexity. Again, the values here only reflect the power consumption of the card measured at DC VGA card inputs, not of the whole system. A Keithley Integra 2700 digital multimeter with 6.5-digit resolution was used for all measurements. An optimized fan-profile is also one of the few things that board vendors can do to impress with reference designs where they are prohibited from making changes to the thermal solution or components on the card.įor this test, we measured the power consumption of the graphics card only via the PCI-Express power connector(s) and PCI-Express bus slot. Power ConsumptionCooling modern video cards is becoming more and more difficult, especially with users asking for a quiet cooling solution, which is why engineers are now paying much more attention to the power consumption of new video-card designs.
