Here we present power draw figures for the graphics card-only, on a per-game basis for all twelve games we tested at 1080p. This is measured using Nvidia's Power Capture Analysis Tool, also known as PCAT. You can read more about our updated power draw testing methodology HERE.

Per-Game Results (RTX 3080 Ti Founders Edition Only) at 1080p:

12-Game Average at 1080p:

Despite a rated 350W TGP, power draw is typically lower than this at 1080p, where a GPU like the RTX 3080 Ti may not be fully utilised in certain titles. An average power reading of 323.7W illustrates this perfectly, though it's still the second highest result on our chart.
