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.

I believe it occurs most commonly with dual monitor setups

Because a dual monitor setup is pretty common.... it sounds like any setup that is more than 1 monitor - when at least one or more monitors are more than 60 hz - then it happens? I dunno if resolution impacts anything - if they have more than one monitor, these days, it seems that at least one is higher than 1080p.
