1 year later, 7900XTX still has >100W idle power draw. AMD still has not made a statement (alien.top)

The amount of carbon this has undoubtedly put into our atmosphere is really my main concern. Yes I know you can do hacky workarounds to fix this, but how many of their consumers did this? Roughly none. What a waste of our planets resources.

OP, these posts inevitably lead to tips, ehat worked for me, a restatement of the problem, and digress from there.

I for one agree with u 100%. There are NOT user-side solutions for a great many of us.

Amd also asks too much of the user. I know i musta logged well over 200hrs on the idle power problem since i bought in February.

Vast majority have reported this issue as fixed ages ago.

Thx for making making my point for me.

90w idle, down from 120w, (vs roughly 26w for 6000 gpus on same systems) isnt fixed for a great many folks.
