We measure system-wide power draw from the wall while running Cyberpunk 2077 for 30 minutes. We do this at 1080p, 1440p and 2160p (4K) to give you a better idea of total system power draw across a range of resolutions, where CPU power is typically higher at the lower resolutions.

To add to our detailed graphics card-only power draw testing, we also look at power draw of the entire system measured at the wall socket. Power draw for the Arc GPUs increases as we step up in resolution, peaking at 374W for the A770 at 4K. This will vary slightly depending on the game in question, but it's good to know a 1000W PSU isn't required!
