Gigabyte GTX 660Ti Overclock 2GB Graphics Card Review
Chris Hadley / 12 years ago
To 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.
With this being the first 660Ti we’ve looked at we can’t see how it fairs to others on the market and at the same time being an OC version we do expect it to draw a little more power over the stock boards. This aside we find that the card does draw around the same amount of power as Gigabyte’s own GTX 670 topping out with a total system draw of 308W.
