ksullivan86 Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 (edited) I just installed an Intel arc a770 16gb(asrock) but I have noticed the card is drawing about 60watts (my idle without the card is around 60w so the gpu is doubling my idle power while doing nothing except producing extra heat(the temps on one of nvme drives is about 8-12 F warmer) but even with that idle heat the cards fans stay stopped. I tested the card in plex transcoding 4k to 1080p and it worked fine, the cards fans only spun up a fraction of the time it was playing and I did notice power draw was about the same around 120w. I have gpu top enabled and was able to see the processor was being used. I also have powertop installed and switched all my turnables to "good" but that didn't seem to make any difference. I also have all the aspm setting enabled on the bios asrock z790 taichi lite. literally the only reason I put a gpu in and got and intel arc is because they can draw under 1 watt in idle, I didn't want a gpu because of the high idle power but when I read about intel's low idle I got one (mainly for AI as my 14700k handles about any transcoing amazingly well and efficient) Edited March 1 by ksullivan86 Quote Link to comment
freeyoung Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 I have the same symptoms as my Intel A380, running in unraid 7.0.0-beta2. Had to switch back to my Tesla P4 because the A380 consumes ~18 watts at idle. intel_gpu_top showed me `BUSY` as well. ASPM enabled and activated. Powertop --auto-tune applied. Quote Link to comment
centauri Posted Wednesday at 01:01 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 01:01 PM Nobody else having this problem? Beta 3 has no improvements. Quote Link to comment
