PCSpecialist Warp Nova R Prebuilt Review (7800X3D + 4070 Super)

CPU package power consumption peaked at 77 watts during a sustained Cinebench multicore workload, whereas when gaming in Cyberpunk 2077, that usage dropped to 45 watts. At idle the Ryzen 7 7800X3D was measured as using 24 watts of power.

CPU temperatures expectedly reflect the power usage results with the Ryzen 7 7800X3D peaking at 88 degrees during a Cinebench multicore run and hitting 68 and 52 degrees celsius during gaming and when at idle respectively.

The Asus TUF RTX 4070 Gaming OC graphics card handled gaming temperatures quite well due to its triple fan design. Ambient temperature were higher than normal, being measured at 22 degrees. However the GPU still kept itself cool, hitting peak temperatures of 65 degrees on the GPU sensor and 76 degrees on both the memory and hotspot metrics.

The Warp Nova R is not a particularly loud system – maximum acoustic output was measured at 44dB when running Cinebench multicore. Testing environment noise floor was measured at roughly 36dB. For full detail and to listen to the system for yourself, head over to YouTube and watch our full video review.

Finally, total system power draw when measured at the wall socket was clocked at 342 watts when gaming in Cyberpunk 2077, 168 watts when running a synthetic benchmark and 106 watts when idle.
