Hi guys,
I just installed my new 390 Nitro and I'm pretty pleased with the performance in my games.
However I just can't justify the high power consume while using a multi-monitor setup.
I knew already, that AMD doesn't downclock the memory when using more than one monitor. But this means, that my system is pulling whole 50 W more and electricity is quiet expensive here in Europe. I'm coding a lot and I just can't stop using my second monitor. Unfortunately I'm thinking about switching back to team green.
So I thought about two possible solutions:
1) Downclock the memory yourself via profile setting.
2) Use the IGPU for my second montior.
Can anyone share some experience or thoughts about this topic?
Thanks for reading!
