Here we present power draw figures for the graphics card-only, on a per-game basis for all twelve games we tested at 2160p (4K). This is measured using Nvidia's Power Capture Analysis Tool, also known as PCAT. You can read more about our updated power draw testing methodology HERE.

12-Game Average at 2160p (4K):

Up at 4K, power draw is again in-line with the rated 355W TBP, averaging 355.7W across the 12 games we tested. This is about 75W more than the RTX 4080 (a 26% difference), despite a 7% delta in gaming performance, something which has clear implications for efficiency, as we are about to see.
