Nevermind, I now realize what you are talking about.  I believe after
reboot it's not even recognizing the card since it doesn't even show
up on dmesg.  I imagine that means it shouldn't be consuming power,
havn't had time to test that out.  If you're only running Linux this
shouldn't be a problem, but according to someone else after they
reboot and load Windows, it won't recognize the dGPU either.
