MSI GTX 670 Twin Frozr Power Edition OC 2GB 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.
On the power front, we find a mixed bag of results with one of the lower idle power draws that we have seen at only 128W, but when at full load, the card site more towards the middle of the pack with total system power draw of just under 300W.
