I've bought an A380 index which doesn't have a 8pin power plug, and I recognized that it only consumes 35 watts when its usage is 100% (I know that this number may not contain). Simply unlocking the power limit in Intel's Arc control center doesn't work.
I've heard that the PCIe plug can offer 75 watts for a single device, so I'm wondering that if I can do something to unlock this graphics card's power limit. Maybe a bios flash?

Benchmark Scores I dont have time for that.
I should make a more feature rich version of it someday, but shamino built the default IGCL sample, this might give you the ability to adjust voltage.


However the index should pull 75w just fine. Thats what its rated for.


It should be noted wattage =/= load.
