Power Consumption

[Mazumo28]

It's just a simple question, really.
How much power does a C3D X800GTO consume when overclocked to, oh say 540/560 @ 16p?

Thanks in advance

At those speeds its just a slightly oc'd x800xt pe. That would put power consumption at roughly the following :

17 watts @ idle
63 watts @ load

x800xt pe power consumption

17 watts is impossible let alone 63. i think at 100% load it uses somewhere around 200-250watts.

Did you read the paragraph to your link johnnqq?? :roll:

That is TOTAL POWER consumed by the ENTIRE system. That system includes a FX-55, mobo, 1gb ram etc....
