Hey there! I just completed my new setup — a R9 9950x3d with an RTX 4080, 32GB RAM, and an ASRock x870 Live Mixer board. I’m struggling to get my GPU to exceed 170 watts, even when I run demanding tasks like gaming or Cinebench. I remember having similar issues before, and it seems this model might be the culprit. Anyone have any ideas or advice?

The under load state wasn't captured. Using MSI Afterburner, are you operating at full power? Edited January 18 by leclod

Sorry to hear that. I messed up the test and the real-time power jumped to 300.

That’s encouraging to hear. The RTX 4080 typically runs between 260-300W at peak, but you might see higher usage in demanding games. With your overclocked model, you could be drawing 375-380W depending on the title.
