Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

CTOnews.com October 19 news, Intel Ruixuan A7 series of high-end desktop graphics card launch, some reviews found that the card in the idle state still has 47W of power consumption, and generally should be less than 10W, which is obviously abnormal.

As you can see from the figure, the idle power consumption of the Intel Regent A770 and A750 is much higher than that of the RTX 3090 Ti.

On October 13, Intel offered a solution on its website, which requires users to configure BIOS and Windows power settings.

BIOS settings:

1. Allow the operating system to control Native ASPM by setting ASPM to enable.

2. Enable the PCI Express root port ASPM and select the L1 substate.

If your CTOnews.com partner is not sure where to find these settings, you can consult the motherboard manual or contact the motherboard manufacturer. Different manufacturers may have different names for the same settings.

In addition, users need to configure Windows power settings:

Win + S search for "Edit Power Plan"

Click to change advanced power settings

Find PCI Express.

Click the "+" sign next to PCI Express to expand the option

Click the "+" sign next to the link state power management to expand the options

Use the drop-down menu to select the maximum power savings

Click the application at the bottom right to take effect.

Intel said its power management architecture was designed to target technologies that exist on modern platforms and to benefit from specific parameters in motherboard system settings commonly known as ASPM. Enabling these features will allow users to get the best idle power consumption through Intel dazzling graphics cards.

In addition, it should be noted that if the display refresh rate exceeds 60Hz, GPU is required to run at a slightly higher clock, and slightly higher power consumption is normal. Intel said it would focus on optimization in the next generation.
