Hi everyone,
I have an Nvidia GTX 1050 TI SSC ACX 3.0 installed in my Dell XPS 8910. I chose this card because it didn't require a lot of power.
When idle the power consumption is at 47%. At a games load screen (player unknowns battlegrounds), power consumption is at 70% and when i play it gets up to around 97%.
Are these readings normal? I believe my current PSU is 450 watts.
Would purchasing an 850 watt PSU reduce these numbers?
Would upgrading my motherboard help?
