Power Consume

[DarkerDeviator]

Hello people, i have 1 question, what's the current Power Consume of our new PC's? I mean, how many Kw/h does a PC consume boting? With the screen off

I've an i5 with 8gb ram and 560GT TI oc and a Asus Sabertooth motherboard.

Sorry for my crappy English XD

~200w

depends on hardware, usually the newer the hardware, the better the power-efficiency.

Running:
i7-2600k OC'ed to 4.5GHz
GTX670 FTW 2GB
24GB of RAM
1 SSD
1 SATA HDD
5 1920x1080 LED Screens

My UPS shows I am pulling 310W out of the 600W it can output.

I don't know what the deal is with increasing PSU wattage and saying people need it. I guess only if you run quad SLI and OC, then you need 1kW+ PSU's but no one really even needs 500+.

(Although mine is a Corsair 750W cause I was an idiot 2 years ago; Corsair PSU's are great though.)

Total power draw depends on a lot of things. If your question is does power cost more than just buying gold online then its a computer to purchase investment.

running my bots vs leaving my pc on (which i always do) consumes about 100W (based on my old i7 950 consuming about 70% cpu usage - max id assume is 130W) more than usual, so to me personally its not really a cost factor. never bothered reading all the threads with "not worth it" in the title

Thank you everybody for your replies, my question it's because i usually pay 50? for my electric bid, but this month it's like 100? and i don't know if it's because of the PC running 24/7 i think 50?/month for a PC running 24/7 it's not possible XD

0,200kWatt * 24h * 30 days * price per kw/h (in my case 28,6cents) = xx ? (in my case 41,184? per month)

Remember this is a low profile pc.

150Watt = income from 1 bot just for power costs.

how old are you? 13?

1 or 2 bots are not worth it if you have to run the pc more time than usual.

running a pc 24/7 with 300 watt is 2,15 euro per day where i live. = 64 euro / month

Thanks mate, now I realized that it's not worth it for me to bot XD!

Let's sell all the stuff and keep working

I'm making some math (I'm not really good at maths XD) and that's what i get the following...

Supposing my PC consumes 300W/h or what is the same 0,3Kw/h, okay the Kwh in my country is at 0,135145?/h that means 0,3Kw/h * 0,135145?/h = 0,0405435?/h

so 0,0405435?/h is what my PC consumes in ? each hour if i multiply it for 24hours = 0,973044?/day
if do it again for month (Supposing each month have 30 days): 0,973044*30 = 29,19132?/month for my PC running 24/7

So definitely it's not 64? as you say (At least in my case)

I've won like 40? in 2 weeks (A crap, i know xD) running 3 bots so, for the moment it is still worth for me dedicate 20min each day to clean crap and sell the good stuff...
