ASUS GTX 950-2G “Unplugged” Review

Power consumption was measured after 10 minutes of load under three scenarios: Furmark GPU stress test, Unigine Valley looping at the Extreme HD preset and desktop idle. The measurement was taking using an Energenie ENER007 power meter and measured for the whole system, excluding the monitor.

While Furmark and desktop idle provide stable and consistent power read-outs, Unigine Valley does not so the power reading is taken as the highest value in Scene 1 of 18.

Power consumption is 10 to 15 watts higher than a GTX 750 Ti, roughly 15% more, yet performance is up to 30% more in some scenarios. Note that the R7 370 which the GTX 950-2G managed to keep pace with consumes anywhere between 30 and 75 Watts more power.
