Gigabyte Z87X-UD4H (Z87) Motherboard Review

Power Consumption

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 system 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 is another test that puts the board slap bang in the middle of our charts with an idle of 88 Watts and load of 255 Watts. The extra voltage needed to hit 4.8GHz did see the power draw increase, but still remained under 350 Watts at load.
