AMD Radeon RX 6600

a bit outdated, but I redone the multi monitor test acc. to

Multi-monitor: Two monitors are connected to the tested card, and both use different display timings. One monitor runs 2560x1440 over DisplayPort, and the other monitor runs 1920x1080 over HDMI. The refresh rate is set to 60 Hz for both screens. Windows 10 is sitting at the desktop with all windows closed and drivers installed. The card is left to warm up in idle mode until power draw is stable. When using two identical monitors with the same timings and resolution, power consumption can be lower. When using high refresh rate monitors, power consumption can be higher than in this test.

and: 3 W power draw

my monitors, actually smart TVs, are 4k. one 120hz, one 60hz.
multi monitor with both at 4k@60hz results in 18W power draw.

my current gpu is from sapphire.

Do your video playback figures match the review? There's an 11 watt increase from the 6600 xt

it very much depends if VRAM CLK goes up. eg youtube in 4k usually drives the clock to 1750 mhz and so yes, the power draw goes to the usual ~18W.
for some quality settings resp videos the clock would stay at ~half and so power also at 11W.
the formula is 3-4W idle + VRAM clock + GPU clock. where VRAM is 0-15W and GPU is 0-80W.

cool, thank you for the testing
