A 3080 does 99-100 mh at 215-220W .

3 580’s would hit 100mh at 240w  if they really stay 80W .

How are they less power hungry than 3080’s ?

Polaris is never 80 watts, it says 80 or much lower, i have a polaris card that says 60w but in reality is 120w at the wall maybe because is amd? nvidia gpus seem much more closer to what the software says.

I've seen some people saying Polaris, specifically RX 580 uses 80w  Cheesy

I answered here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5305504.0

But again, as Metroid said, I never saw any Polaris consuming 80w, this value is only the chip power consumption, but there's more on the board, like memory and fans

RX 580 can hash 30 to 33Mhs (it's very hard to achieve 33Mhs) and uses at least 120w (with luck) or 130w usually on the wall

For comparison, I have 3080 from EVGA, hashing 98Mhs without any drop, stable 24h and using 240w at the wall exactly

With 240w on the wall you can use only 2 Polaris, and the maximum you can achieve, with excelent GPU and memory are 66Mhs


My msi is showing 215W at 99mhs . Should i assume it’s pulling 240 at the wall ?
