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 graphics card 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.
At the end of the day, a 6850 isn’t going to use mass amounts of power, and even on load, our Z68 based system still managed to pull less than 200 Watts from the wall.
