Power Consumption

Power consumption when running the FurMark application is relatively higher compared to when the same card ran Unigine Heaven 2.1. This is because GTX 580 graphics cards are outfitted with the new Power Monitoring hardware, and the MSI N580GTX M2D15D5 is no exception. The feature will keep power consumption from going beyond the specified rating as the card runs intensive applications that put heavy stress on it.
