Title: GTX 1050 Ti - 49% Power Consumption in IDLE - Please help.
Post by: Kahilfe on December 08, 2016, 11:05:27 pm

Hello dear community,

today I bough a GTX 1050 Ti (GeForce® GTX 1050 Ti OC 4G - GV-N105TOC-4GD Gigabyte).

But I have a realy bad problem with this new card:

In IDLE mode the power consumption is at 49% / 35 W.
I used GPU-Z, Furmark, Extreme Gaming Engine (Gigabyte) to read this.

Screenshot from GPU-Z:

In the Gigabyte Software "Extreme Gaming Engine, there is a "gaming mode", "OC Mode", and "Eco Mode" for V Power, but nothing happens...

Can you help me please?

In NVIDIA Control Panel, go to Manage 3D Settings and change the Power Management Mode. Do not use Maximun performance
