I own a Dell Precision 5680 i7 13800H with an Nvidia RTX 2000 Ada generation and 1080p OLED display. When launching the desktop, it suddenly draws up to 30,000 milliwatts of power. Is this typical? You can view the image here: https://imgur.com/a/uC7xbdd and here: https://imgur.com/aTYY4W0

There could be developments occurring off the record. Any modifications to the system or updates since you last checked 10 hours ago?

The device running at 30 watts idle is quite efficient. In contrast, your battery might be failing. Could you tell me how long the laptop has been used?
