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.
What’s even more shocking is how frugal it is on the power too, I was expecting it to top the chart, but it uses less power than a mini-ITX ASUS board… well done Gigabyte engineers!
