To test power consumption today we are using a Keithley Integra unit and we measure power consumption from the VGA card inputs, not the system wide drain. We measure results while gaming in Crysis Warhead and record the results.
When idle, the card demands 19 watts of power, rising to 163 watts when gaming.

The past few years in particular have felt pretty bleak for the video games industry, with the rise and fall of countless live-service games creating volatility, while the influx of gen-AI has led to continuous price hikes across the board.

nice card, but why not go for a ti instread? seems a better deal to me.
I already have this card and the review is fair, it is a bit loud due to the single, small fan, but performance is great. THey should have made a dual fan version
Sparkle? didnt even know they were still going. they have a weak presense in UK. not the first company I would think of for a purchase.
looks like a decent card, but the cooler is quite poor considering the competition. You were too nice in the review
I think this card is pointless with new AMD cards launching soon and all that.
good review ! thanks kitguru !
