Power Consumption
At stock values, the motherboard reported a total system wattage of 338 under extreme load. This is excellent when you consider the CPU’s boost frequency of 4.2GHz, and elite-tier graphics card solution.
Even when the 4.8GHz overclock was applied, the wattage only increased by a small margin and managed to remain under 400 watts during stress testing.
