Yeah, I make a poor argument here.The price difference of $60 will buy several years of (difference in) electricity. Efficiency is good but paying for it up front is not "saving". While people buy a the GTX 1060 because it will work with crap low watt OEM PSU that isn't even Bronze rated. Better off using that $60 saved to buy a quality Gold PSU first, if saving electricity is paramount.
Maybe you'd like to comment on this guy's take on power efficiency instead? https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/...arctic-islands-gpu-family.211973/post-3274712
