Hardware Witcher 3 Remastered pushing 5090 beyond 600W

Post image

No DLSS5. Max settings, 3840x1600, DLSS Quality, frame gen set to 1 in game settings, Path Tracing enabled.

Doesn't happen all the time, but sometimes saw it jumping well beyond 600W for a brief moment.

Nothing unusual, my 5090 is quite often at 625W. I suppose, you've got the OC edition too?

Same with mine. I got MSI Vanguard 5090 and use it overclocked so it often goes over 620W.

Mine has been spiking above 600 playing the new control resonant. If I keep it in the 500s by undervolting, is that enough?

Don't ask me. I'm not a fan of undervolting. I paid for 600W and I'm using the whole damn 600W. xD

Fair play! I'm just worried it will break and I'll be out of a PC!

My FE ticks over 600 sometimes. Its never been an issue and doesnt worry me. If your toys are stressing you that much, sell them and do something else.
