Here we present power draw figures for the graphics card-only, on a per-game basis for all twelve games we tested at 1440p. This is measured using Nvidia's Power Capture Analysis Tool, also known as PCAT. You can read more about our updated power draw testing methodology HERE.

12-Game Average at 1440p:

Power draw does increase at 1440p, this time averaging 247.8W. That's just a 6W increase over the original 4070 Ti and is on par with the RX 7800 XT, which gives you an idea about how much more efficient Ada Lovelace GPUs are compared to their RDNA 3 rivals.

Ray tracing results

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