00:00:00.599 --> 00:00:09.760
well this will be my last video on the ASUS Aries uh dual GPU

00:00:06.439 --> 00:00:12.240
5870 video card and I just wanted to

00:00:09.760 --> 00:00:16.279
take a quick look at power consumption so I'm running 3D Mark Vantage once

00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:22.960
again I'm at just the default clock speed which is two of these so 25870

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

00:00:24.560 --> 00:00:34.280
wall here bear in mind that this power supply is about 80% efficient so so

00:00:30.080 --> 00:00:36.040
we're pulling about uh 80% of that uh in

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

00:00:38.120 --> 00:00:44.079
watts from the wall but um yeah overall

00:00:41.760 --> 00:00:49.840
for a for an overclocked six core processor and a dual

00:00:46.879 --> 00:00:54.600
5870 Ludicrous Speed graphics card it's not too bad now I suspect for this part

00:00:52.239 --> 00:01:00.280
it's going to go up a little bit higher you can hear the graphics card

00:00:56.719 --> 00:01:01.399
working a little harder 440

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

00:01:04.479 --> 00:01:13.680
watts so there you have it power consumption on the assus Aries graphics

00:01:10.680 --> 00:01:13.680
card
