HIS Radeon HD 6970 MIX 2GB 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.
Nothing out of the ordinary here as we knew this was the most powerful card we’ve tested under our new power measuring techniques.
