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.

MIne does 5w idle with 3x 1080p monitors.

The trick was to reduce the 165 Hz to 60 Hz..

That's not a good 'solution' - what if someone wants to game on 120 hz variable refresh rate?
