Asus Radeon HD 6670 1GB Graphics Card Review

Power ConsumptionTo test power consumption, we monitor the overall power of the system through a plug-in electricity usage monitor at an idle and load state. This allows us to show the fluctuation between how much power draw the graphics card takes at idle and at load. By monitoring the overall usage of the whole system, it gives an easy comparison if you wish to do the same yourself as opposed to buying very expensive individual testing equipment.
Power consumption for the card showed that even with the lesser powered 6450 and 6570 that on idle it is clearly the most efficient. Even at load it put up a good fight against the 6450 and only lost out by 2 watts.
