Specs:
Ryzen 7 3800x
Asus ROG Strix B550-F Gaming
GTX 1080
G-Skill Aegis 3200mhz cl16
Crucial P5 Plus
Some AIO Cooler 2x140mm
be quiet! PURE POWER 11 FM | 750W PC-Netzteil
Recently i took an old computer and made it my nas. To read the power i bought something to read it directly from the plug,
it was only 17 watts while idling, which is good so i wondered what my main PC was using. 104W while idling. I was unsure
if that could be right. I reset my bios and only turned d.o.c.p on, everything else is stock, but that didnt change a thing.
HWInfo, Coretemp and HWMonitor all say the cpu is using 22W in idle and the gpu is using 42W. That would be 64W so where
do the rest of 40W come from? M2 ssd shouldnt even use a Watt in idle, so is it really motherboard, cooler, ram and maybe some
power supply inefficiency? The CPU also isnt dropping clock down more than 3599mhz, are there any bios settings that could
help me get less power consumption?
