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 don’t know if I truly solved my idle power issue, but for my single monitor setup it’s kinda ok.

    DDU, if you had another GPU before the 7900XTX, doesn’t matter if it’s an AMD GPU. DDU anyway.

    Turn off desktop recording. Instant replay and desktop recording, both being turned on causes the memory to clock higher. You can have one on, but not both.

    Don’t monitor the power using the overlay with other metrics. That’s not idling at all I think.

    It’ll sometimes idle at 25W, sometimes 8+W. I came back home and saw the idle wattage after the monitor woke up to be 5W. So it’s idling when it matters for my use case.
