Let’s start with the individual loads and the resulting power consumption in each case. The almost 13 watts in idle go to lasen of microcontroller and LED, the rest is in the gradation as usual. At just under 330 watts, the card is no slouch, but it’s not yet a case for the Betty Ford Clinic either.
You can see this also at the voltages As a special service I also recorded the respective single voltages VDDCR_GFX, VDDCR_SOC and VDDCI_MEM, because these values differ significantly from what e.g. GPU-Z outputs as sensor value. Specifications and real values are always 2 pairs of shoes in reality. Even if you leave the Wattman at 1.15 volts or even tweak it to 1.25 volts, the VDDC_GFX is limited to 1.15 volts anyway and will never even come close as a default value, no matter what you set it to. As a comparison I included the reference card as a base and especially the comparison of the SoC voltage is worthwhile.
Standard compliance at the motherboard slot (PEG)
Now let’s look at the load of the motherboard slot, which is specified by the PCI SIG with 5.5 Amps. This results in a maximum power of 66 watts at 12 volts. You can see very clearly that under normal load exactly 2.8 amps are reached, which is absolutely exemplary. This also applies to the up to 3.1 at maximum load, as there is still an extremely large amount of headroom left here.
