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 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.
As highlighted within the battery life results, the GT60-2OK has a healthy appetite for power and this is reinforced by the size of the AC adaptor that comes with the unit. Whilst running both SPECviewperf 12 and SuperPI at the same time, a peak power consumption of just under 190w was recorded, showing this system was using every bit of power that it could get hold of. Whilst in an idle state the consumption was a little more conservative at only 80W
