Glorious, what settings?
Just the default.
OP, explain to me how watercooling would effect power efficiency.
Or you're just dreaming
Not dreaming, the cooler hardware runs the more efficient it will be and in return the less power will be used. Going from 85c+ load to under 40c load is a huge difference. I saw a nice drop when I went from air to water on my 3 6970's.
Yes.... cooler hardware runs more efficient. But not eligible in a scale we're talking here. What do you expect from 950w? .... 940w? LOL
And no, i'm not new to watercooling.
ps. btw if you want to measure idle power consumption to see how much wattage these cards are pulling just by themselves, you should just remove them and boot your system with live linux. This would give you more accurate number.
