Power Consumption of Contemporary Graphics Accelerators: Part1 -> ATI

jmke · 29th July 2004, 19:03

Contemporary graphics cards surpass the older products across a number of parameters like speed, functionality, complexity and, alas, power consumption and heat generation. We would like to introduce to you a method of measuring power consumption – and heat dissipation, too – for modern graphics cards and will also share with you the results of the tests, for the card running at their nominal frequencies and after overclocking.

Surprising factors on different rates of power consumption from the three voltage rails with different series of card.
