lack of basic power management features at hardware level make it very inefficient if you don't play games all day, runs at like 50 watts when playing vids or scrolling the web, only at complete idle it doesn't have this problem (thanks to aspm), this also means 0 rpm mode pretty much doesn't work (or works herratically) on these cards
plus huge amounts of driver overhead, on a ryzen 5600x with a b580 you are already getting like 30% less performance than an rtx 4060/rx 7600 on cpu bound titles
these two were complete deal breakers for me (poorfag with no ac that rarely plays games and when I do it's all cpu-bound stuff and I only have a 5700x, plus pc is on my desk and i don't like fan noise), that's why when my rx 580 died I got an rx 7600 despite it having less vram (actually the b580 was also 50+€ more expensive cause they aren't like officially commercialized here in italy or something like that so you get to pay a bunch of import taxes on it so yeah, kind of a shitty card for my use case, and I think they're quite overrated in general, they're still in like a beta stage, will probably be fine in a couple of generations)

where did you get that number from? 34 is quite a bit more than 19, and yes, that is quite a lot as constant consumption for a gpu sitting there doing nothing.

>aspm drops to 8-9 on idle
and then jumps right back to 34 watts when doing anything with hardware acceleration (scrolling in your browser, watching a movie), not really a fix.
