Division IV Maximum Power Test for Workstations
United Kingdom
The maximum power for workstations is found by the simultaneous operation of two industry standard benchmarks: Linpack to stress the core system (e.g. processor, memory, etc.) and SPECviewperf® (latest available version for the UUT) to stress the system’s GPU. Additional information on these benchmarks, including free downloads, can be found at the URLs found below:

This test must be repeated three times on the same UUT, and all three measurements must fall within a ± 2 % tolerance relative to the average of the three measured maximum power values.
Measurement of the maximum AC power consumption of a workstation should be conducted as follows:
