1
00:00:00,599 --> 00:00:09,760
well this will be my last video on the ASUS Aries uh dual GPU

2
00:00:06,439 --> 00:00:12,240
5870 video card and I just wanted to

3
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:16,279
take a quick look at power consumption so I'm running 3D Mark Vantage once

4
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:22,960
again I'm at just the default clock speed which is two of these so 25870

5
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:27,320
clock speed so I'm just going to go have a look at what we're pulling out of the

6
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:34,280
wall here bear in mind that this power supply is about 80% efficient so so

7
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:36,040
we're pulling about uh 80% of that uh in

8
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:41,760
fer Mark I've seen it go a little bit higher I've seen it get up around 500

9
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:44,079
watts from the wall but um yeah overall

10
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:49,840
for a for an overclocked six core processor and a dual

11
00:00:46,879 --> 00:00:54,600
5870 Ludicrous Speed graphics card it's not too bad now I suspect for this part

12
00:00:52,239 --> 00:01:00,280
it's going to go up a little bit higher you can hear the graphics card

13
00:00:56,719 --> 00:01:01,399
working a little harder 440

14
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:06,439
no that's as high as it's going to go for me so when the video card is not working we're sitting at around 300

15
00:01:04,479 --> 00:01:13,680
watts so there you have it power consumption on the assus Aries graphics

16
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,680
card
