GPU power comparisons

GPU electricity cost comparisons

Compare two graphics cards with the same whole-PC assumptions instead of comparing unrelated wattage estimates. Change the state, GPU load, system overhead, PSU efficiency and gaming time on every comparison page.

What these comparisons do

Each comparison keeps the non-GPU assumptions identical, which isolates the effect of the graphics-card power specification inside the model. That makes the cost difference easier to interpret than comparing two separate calculators with different defaults.

Electricity cost is only one part of a GPU decision. These pages do not rank gaming performance, purchase price, thermals or value. They answer a narrower question: how much can the modeled electricity cost differ when the graphics card changes?
