compared to its closest competition in terms of power and noise so that would be the 6990 as well as two GTX 580s in SLI so the first thing I'm going to do is I'm going to take an idle temperature as well as an idle power reading on the GTX 590 so the idle temperature right now is about 35 or 36° depending on whether we can actually get the camera to focus for you guys or not there we go so 30 let's say 35° on the GPU cores and then we've also got our idle power at the wall being about 96 Watts so what I'm going to do is I'm going to put audio Snippets at the end of the video so if you just want to see just if you just want to hear how these cards compare to each other in terms of noise then you can skip there otherwise I'll show you guys the temperatures and power consumption all along for all the these different solutions just so you guys know for the max power I using the batch size test as recommended by Sky MTL from Hardware conu I'm going to repeat that test so that'll give me a nice high GPU temperature as well as a maximum power load so here we go so our load power consumption for the GTX 590 clocks in at around 340 watt so we're just going to record that as 340 and uh you can see there's a cat investigating it and our maximum temperatures after running this particular little Benchmark or rather our stable temperatures are 78 and 79° on each of the gpus so we'll call that 79 and I really wish that window would go away I don't care I don't care 78 so there you go or 79 rather um so we'll go ahead and record that in our little uh Power W there really is quite a dramatic difference between the maximum power and the uh and the minimum power NVIDIA's really done a good job of uh clocking down the GPU when it's not being used you can see right now it's actually stepping down right now so it goes all the way down to 51 mahz on the GPU Focus there you go very nice very cool all right so there's my idle power consumption for the Radeon 6990 so we'll call that 132 and I should write that on my handy little chart at some point and then um oh hold on let's just do that and then here are my idle temperatures so it settles in around 41° on the GPU that has less ventilation so the one at the back of the card and 39° on the GPU at the front of the card so there there's our idle values so here's the max power consumption of the radon HD 6990 for the sake of argument why don't we say around 400 varies let's take the Peaks almost the peak so we'll say about 405 Watts cuz it sort of Rises and dips so we're running the 3D Mark test and uh let's have a look at what we achieved in terms of maximum temperatures bringing up after burner here so our Max temps Peak this is artificial um but they peaked at around 85 and 82° on both of the gpus so here I'm just going to make it focus focus focus thank you all right so 85 and 82° were my Peak temperatures on the gpus so let's call that a 15 50 wat idle total system power draw and bearing in mind that all of these numbers for the power are coming through an 80 plus silver Power Supply so you got to kind of uh factor that in if you want to figure out how much power they're actually consuming so this is two GTX 580s both of them are stock clocked reference designs and our idle temperatures are actually come in similar on one of them okay so similar on this one this is the bottom GPU at 34° and then quite a bit higher so the reason that second one is quite a bit higher is that there's only that much space for the fan to draw air in whereas the GTX 590 is getting fresh air for both of the gpus going out either side so uh let's get some load temps and load power consumption going on here and then we will have some commentary at about 465 Watts the GTX 580 solution consumes the most power out of all of the configurations that are here so that's uh going with the two dedicated dual gpus rather than a single dual GPU card uh in both cases consumes more power it is um the highest performing solution out of all of the ones that we've looked at so that's to be considered as well although sometimes the margin is substantial and other times it's less substantial uh no it's fairly substantial for the most part just looking at uh at these numbers here anyway so uh yeah I'll show you the load temps it's me in my pink shirt so for load temps we're looking at 82 and 77° so that GPU uh that is starving for air in the middle uh really well does starve for air a little bit and I think that's pretty much it guys so stay stay tuned and I'm going to show you all the audio samples from these cards thanks
