General Benchmarks
Power Consumption To emulate real-world usage scenarios, we record system-wide mains power draw both when idle and while playing Far Cry 5
Temperature To emulate real-world usage scenarios, we record GPU core temperature both when idle and while playing Far Cry 5
Noise A PCE-318 meter is used to record noise levels when idle and while playing Far Cry 5
Overclocking Maintaining out-the-box voltage, we increase the card's power target and aim for an optimal balance of core and memory overclock.

Notes

Since the Founders Edition launch, we have filled out the benchmarks with the addition of Shadow of the Tomb Raider, run at the highest-quality settings and TAA. Also, we have benchmarked 3DMark Time Spy Extreme for all cards.
