Using the graphics card-only power draw figures presented earlier in the review, here we present performance per Watt on a per-game basis for all twelve games we tested at 1440p.

Per-Game Results at 1440p:

12-Game Average at 1440p:

The overall trend stays the same at 1440p, too. We're again looking at exactly 50% more performance per Watt than the A750, though the B580 is 18% behind the RTX 4060 here.

Ray tracing results

As a bonus, we now include the power figures for all eight games we test with ray tracing enabled.

8-Game ray tracing average:

Nvidia widens the gap when looking at ray tracing efficiency, given the B580 is 25% less efficient than the RTX 4060.
