Fair enough...I unfortunately have no experience, first or third hand, in regards to the mining context you alluded to, so I can't confidently speak on what's happening.I can confirm, when testing the power consumption of my Zotac 1080 I had my multi-meter between the MeanWell and the GPU, there was no power flowing to the GPU while the PC was off.Sounds like it depends on GPU card(s) at play; there could be, and will be, variations in power consumption between AMD and Nvidia cards, cards across different series, even cards in the same series. Determining those variations consistently is going to be a challenge without more data.I have a couple other video cards I will test in a little while and post the results.
