The Power Consumption & Efficiency Of Open-Source Linux GPU Drivers
Here's the overall system power and GPU thermal data during all the benchmarks used, in case you're looking for a very low-power or low-heat graphics card.
These results hardly come as a surprise given Nouveau's current limitations, but next week we'll be back to see how the raw performance compares to the latest AMD and NVIDIA proprietary Linux drivers along with comparable power and thermal data too.
