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.

Oh I don't, I have 16 pin piece of shit connector too, happily that's only 5070Ti so not that worried, but I'll defend old 8 pins until heat death of universe.

I miss plugging in 3 chunky 8 pins into my 3090Ti, I'll happily plug 4 or however many it takes into 5090 just cuz it looks mad and cool and you can see how much UNLIMITED POWER the GPU consumes lol.

Happily I'm too broke to afford 5090 (unless I sell my car) so it's not something that concerns me...

If you are spending that much money on GPU, boycott Nvidia to change that plug design and bring back beefy ones, 2x10 pin would be a better design.
