ASUS ROG STRIX Z790-A Gaming WIFI D4 Review

Power Consumption

Power consumption is measured at idle, during a Cinebench R23 run and during a gaming benchmark run of Cyberpunk 2077, which is a very CPU-intensive game. By getting 3 performance metrics, it allows us to see a better picture of the average user and what they are typically going to see in terms of power draw for just the processor itself.

The idle and load power are largely right in the middle really, which is, well, it isn’t really anything. The board delivers reasonable performance, good temperatures and doesn’t use too much power to do it, so I guess it’s just a thumbs up and move on.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
