Gigabyte Z77X-UD5H Motherboard Sandy Bridge Review

To test power consumption, we monitor the overall power of the system through a plug-in electricity usage monitor at an idle and load state. This allows us to show the fluctuation between how much power draw the system takes at idle and at load. By monitoring the overall usage of the whole system, it gives an easy comparison if you wish to do the same yourself as opposed to buying very expensive individual testing equipment.

Idle power consumption results are really promising with this board with thanks for the new technologies that Gigabyte have implemented. Even when overclocked, we only saw a maximum idle consumption of 115.8 Watts. At load, we still kept things under 264.1 Watts at 4.6GHz which is quite an achievement.
