Power consumption and loads
At 11.7 watts in the idle, the power consumption of this board partner card is similar to that of the Founders edition. With gaming and the torture loop, however, you can already notice that Aorus has raised the Power Target a bit. I measure just under 265 watts in gaming and one tick more in the Torture Loop. If I overclock the card to its limit, then it is already a good 290 watts, so no more, despite 112% Power Target. But according to BIOS, the limit is already 300 watts.
The voltages are in the expected range, with the oc's permissible board power being the limiting factor, not the voltage. One notices very clearly that Nvidia deliberately limits here before a possible maximum is reached.
The load distribution on the rails is good, because the maximum 5.5 amperes of the motherboard slot are never exceeded. Even with the external power supply connections, one remains very much below 300 watts.
Detailed recording of power consumption and flowing currents
As usual, I now also set aside the power consumption and the flowing currents as detailed graphics of my oscillograph measurements. A service that hardly anyone else offers and which shows how the maps "tick" in detail:
