Tamed RTX 5090 Performance
How’s everyone else gotten on with reducing their RTX 5090 down to reasonable levels. Mines currently in the range of 320-400w under full load gaming scenarios. I’m likely losing 10% of my performance in doing so but I didn’t want to effectively be running a microwave in my bedroom while gaming.
10% performance loss for a near 50% reduction in power draw is a decent trade & QoL compromise in my books. How are other people getting on in their quest to make the 5090 less power hungry.
I’m only using a very mild undervolt on mine & stopping the clocks from reaching too high to bring power draw inline. Card can very easily reach 3ghz in out of the box settings.
