I'll try to throw a new comparative table on this Sunday April 26th...

I'm waiting to pick up data for better complete my original table.
Today I catched a new PABLO WU, and it is running now in a GT1030.
I still miss data for my GTX950 and GTX1050Ti...
I've got from you data for GTX750Ti and GTX1650, among several other models. Thank you!

Here's one more PABLO run on my i7-7700K ASUS Prime:
GTX 1650 4GB.
4,4092.20sec = 12.25hrs.
http://www.gpugrid.net/workunit.php?wuid=19859216

Getting consistent results from these Alienware cards. Run pretty quiet for a single fan cooler at ~80% fan and a steady 59-60C @ ~24C room temp. (fan ctrl by MSI Afterburner) They run ~97% usage and ~90% power consumption running ACEMD tasks. They are factory overclocked +200MHz so I'd like to see results from a different make of card for comparison.
I think this might be the most GPU compute power per watt that NVIDIA has made so far. 🚀

For future reference,
The OP requested a GPU TDP of 120W, but if he raised the TDP requirements by only 5 more watts, in Linux, this could include many of the RTX series.

A 2060 does the same 7Tflops at 125W, as stock, while a GTX 1660Ti does only 5.4 Tflops at 120W.
A GTX 1660Ti can be brought lower in power, and increase overclock; resulting in the same performance at (an estimated) 85W. Saves you about $40 a year on electricity.

I agree with ProDigit. I have used the same principle on my GPUs and experienced similar results.

I run GPUs power limited and have also overclocked with a power limit on both ACEMD2 and ACEMD3 work units with positive results.

Caveat
Have not tested power draw at the wall, I find it odd that greater performance can be derived by both overclocking and power limiting. Testing at the wall should be the next test to validate this method of output increase.

I've read your post, with exhaustive tests, at ProDigit's Guide: RTX (also GTX), increasing efficiency in Linux thread.
Good job!

When last ACEMD3 WUs outage arrived, I thoght it would last longer.
So, I searched for new projects in order to maintain active my GPUs, and I joined PrimeGrid.
Also, as I concluded on a previous post, I had decided to retire of production a Pascal GTX 950 GPU based graphics card, replacing it by a more efficient Turing GTX 1650 one.
I had tested four different graphics cards based on the same GTX 1650 GPU, and one dilemma arose: What would be the most convenient model for me to repeat?
- Model #1: PNY VCG16504SFPPB-O
- Model #2: ASUS TUF-GTX1650-4G-GAMING
- Model #3: ASUS DUAL-GTX1650-O4G
- Model #4: ASUS ROG-STRIX-GTX1650-O4G-GAMING

Finally, I chose a second second card of Model #4:
I've already given my reasons on [AF>Libristes] hermes Question for new gtx / rtx thread.

And as a complementary information (in close contact with this "Low power GPUs performance comparative" thread), I built a comparative table between the four tested models.
The main data for this comparative come from PrimeGrid's "Generalized Fermat Prime Search (n=20)" CUDA tasks execution.
Theese tasks are very similar in the amount of calculations required, thus being their execution times a good base for GPU's performance comparative.



Conclusions:
- Model #1: is the (negative) winner for the hottest card... But the (possitive) winner for being the most power efficient one (the least energy consumed per WU).
- Model #2: is the least factory overclocked, and therefore it is the lowest performance one, but it is rocky stable and easy to maintain cool.
- Model #3: is probably penalized for being mounted in a PCIE rev. 2.0 - DDR3 motherboard. Its boost clock is higher than the Model #1: one, but the performance for this last is higher (PCIE Rev. 3.0 - DDR4 motherboard).
- Model #4: power efficiency is penalized due to a factory TDP increase, in order to achieve higher boost clocks. But because of this, it is the winner for the highest performance (the lowest execution time).

Nice analysis of your gtx1650 GPUs. Always enjoy your technical hardware posts.

An alternate conclusion on the data presented:
For Low Power GPUs, Model #1 can be the winner if you have the time or inclination to adjust the Fan speeds of the GPU, and optimise the air flow in the Host chassis.
Model #4 offers a 2% gain in speed, but at a penalty of 11% gain in power consumption.
Considering you are comparing a "VW Polo" (PNY) to a "Ferrari" (ASUS ROG) of the GPU world, the "VW Polo" did pretty well.

It gets down to personal choice as to whether cost, raw speed, power efficiency or a combination of these factors is the goal.
