Power and Temperature
To test the power and temperature we perform a manual run-through in Cyberpunk 2077 at “Ultra” settings for real-world in-game data. We use GPU-Z sensor data to record the results. We report on the GPU-Z sensor data for “Board Power” and “GPU Chip Power” when available for our Wattage data. For temperature data, we report the GPU (Edge Temp of the GPU) as well as the Hot Spot (Junction Temperature) when available for our temperature data.
Power
This graph shows nicely the lower power draw of the MSI RTX 4070 Ti SUPRIM X. We see 12% less in the overclocked format and 21% less in the default setting versus the RX 7900 XT. We also find that our review card does exceed the TBP by a slim margin when overclocked.
Temperature
Both video cards are well-cooled respectively. As was stated in the overclocking section, the overclocked MSI RTX 4070 Ti SUPRIM X did run close to the maximum temperature in real-time with fans at default (32%). After adjusting the fan cycle to 60% you can see the result. Keep in mind that this SUPRIM X was nearly silent at 60% fan cycle, the big heatsink did its job. Below you see the GPUZ sensor information. The right-hand column is the overclocked benchmark.
