MI50 power curve tests show generation speed resilient to power throttling; 100W yields 97.5% of 190W speed, with decode memory-bandwidth bound, while 50W achieves 70% of peak speed
Read the original at old.reddit.com→tests done power limiting the GPU on LACT - real power usage varies wildy at 20W it ranges from 25W to 56W same behavior happens on every setting prompt for the test runs:...
