RE: AMD Vega, Is it a bust?

in #cryptocurrency8 years ago

My point regarding TDP is Nvidia and AMD (and Intel for that matter) calculate TDP differently, plus TDP is Thermal Design Power and not power draw.
Fx. 480 has a TDP of 150W, BUT the power draw is around 164 for the reference model(stock). To make matters even worse the GTX 1070 has a TDP of 150W but a powerdraw around 148W. This is super confusing, and it properly will be too for the Vega card, but we can't say much about powerdraw until the cards are tested. :)
