Intel Wants YOU To Fix Their GPU Power Problems…
Today in the news, Intel wants YOU to fix their power problems, Raptor lake is quite efficient, and more. What is up guys I’m Snows and this is your boot sequence.
Let's get started with intel. So the ARC A750 and A770 are finally out. And the reviews are actually pretty favorable. I mean, it's fine for gaming when it works and it has a great encoder that can make this card last years for a media PC. Plus, its price to performance is not bad.
The main issue which we all called out was the drivers. But it seems like there's another issue and I haven't heard it be brought up by many outlets, only a couple. And that problem is Idle power consumption. The 2 ARC GPU’s, the A750 and A770 actually top every modern GPU’s when it comes to idle power draw. Computerbase and techpowerup noted power consumptions of around 45W… That’s at idle… you doing absolutely nothing on your PC. Now, to put that into perspective, a GPU with similar performance like the 6650XT only draws 5 watts at idle, and the RTX 3060 ? 11 watts. I mean even the 3090 ti consumes significantly less at around 25w.
This might seem pretty trivial, and for someone in my position, it is. I live in an area where electricity is super cheap. A year of this running at idle, 24/7 will only cost me about 30 ish dollars. But if you live elsewhere it can be a good chunk of change. From 60 all the way up to 150$ extra a year.
