Post the power consumption of your desktop setup (including display)

[SchumannFrequency]

Total power consumption of desktop setup (including display): 49.5 watts

Components: Intel 12700KF (stock) -- G.SKILL RIPJAWS @3600 CL18 (stock) -- Sapphire RX 7600 -- ASRock B760M-ITX/D4 WiFi -- fractal design DEFINE NANO S -- ARCTIC F14 (intake fan) -- Fractal Design Dynamic GP-14 (intake fan) -- RF120W (CPU fan) -- RF120W (exhaust fan) -- bequiet! SYSTEM POWER 10 550W -- DeepCool AG500BK ARGB (with custom fan) -- EVO 850 500GB
= 42.5 watts power consumption

Display: HP 24fh (set with very low brightness because otherwise I get eye problems with IPS screens)
= 7 watts power consumption

Energy consumption meter: QUIGG GT-PM-05

You are supposed to measure it via a reliable energy meter similar to my QUIGG GT-PM-05.
Please also mention the specs of your components and display.

Total power consumption of desktop setup (including display): 74.2 watts

Components: Intel 3770K (overclocked to 4.5 GHz) -- 2x G.Skill F3-2400C10D-16GTX (stock) -- EVGA GTX 1080 (power modded) -- ASRock Z77 Extreme4 -- Custom water cooling, water pump, and Delta fans (fans off with low load and pump RPM low with low load) -- Seasonic PRIME 600W Titanium -- Samsung 850 Pro
= 46.8 watts power consumption

Display: Samsung 28" UE590 UHD (normal/default bright brightness)
= 27.4 watts power consumption
Reduced display brightness: 13.9 watts, and total consumption: 60.7 watts

Energy consumption meter: P3 Kill A Watt (P4400.01)

120 volt outlets are not as good for switch-mode power supply efficiency for products designed for a global market.

My APC Back-UPS 1350 reports 170W~197W. Air-Cooled 5950X, Hero Ⅷ, 128GB GSkill, RTX3090 OC @ 46C°

Components: i9 7980 XE (OC 4.5GHz), 8x16GB DDR4 3200 ECC REG (OC 4GHZ), Sapphire 7900XT 20GB NITRO (UV 1075mv + power limit), Asrock X299 XE (custom modded bios), custom water loop 1080 rad, D5 pump, 9x12cm P12 fans, Superflower platinum 750w (normal mode not silent), 3x nvme samsung ssd and 2x sata ssd, 3x case fan, all RGB and light off

Idle 120-160w (and light load/youtube)
Gaming (60hz/60FPS fixed): 360-470w (stalker2 340-360w)
Benchmarking GPU 670w max

Not tested with full cpu and gpu load probably 800-900w so that is little over 100% psu load (750w/0.9 eff 833w but a good brand psu can handle for a short time +10% so ~900w is a full max for a 750w brand psu)


Display: HP ZR30W 30" 10Bit 2560x1600@60hz
120-160w (it is not a led monitor)
Normal brightness.

measured with Powercheck 3000
Power is cheap here in Hungary, I pay 18-20 usd a month (discounted family price).

Sig rig, 235ish.

Monitor off, ~205.

Both UPS and Kill-A-Watt P3 agree.

I measured 120V vs 240V switching efficiency on a pretty excellent seasonic in one of my mining articles. It did not amount to any real meaningful difference, see the first chart:

Confessions of a Crypto Miner: Efficiency

Welcome back to Confessions of a Crypto Miner… my bi-weekly column about a crypto miner from 2013 trying to get caught up with the latest standards. I'm presently mining and reporting to you from a dual GTX 1080 based rig mining zCash. In the last entry, I got my hardware & software set up and...

Please ignore my early misguided crypto advocacy, the stats are still relevant.

I measured 120V vs 240V switching efficiency on a decent seasonic in one of my mining articles. I did not amount to any real meaningful difference, see the first chart...

My PSU specs show around 2% better efficiency on 220/240v. I assume that my monitor would be more efficient too, but maybe not if the plug packs are specific, different, and optimized. Hard to say. I just figure that if 37% of my usage is just my monitor, that's pretty bad and there must be an alternative.

I upgraded to this PSU specifically for low load efficiency once I realized that my peak load was within its range. My previous PSU was comparatively terrible during low load.

Edit: yeah, the monitor plug pack is a 110-240 volt plug pack, which means it probably isn't optimized for 120 volts.

Yeah, so did mine but the charts told a different story.

never tested the monitor situation though.

When idle the desktop in my profile uses about 57 W for the system unit, out of which the CPU is 28 W, the GPU 6 W, and the rest of the system is 23 W.

The 28 W of the CPU's power usage is 0.5 W for the cores, 13.5 W for the SOC and 14 W for the interconnects. The SOC consumption is quite high because I'm running 4 sticks of RAM at 3800 MT/s with very tight timings.

My 4K60 monitor is set to 10% brightness and 33% contrast and uses about 15 W in idle and 21 W when gaming.

Speaking of, I mostly play older titles. They usually run in 4K60 maxed out with the GPU limited to around 145 W through UC and UV. With the CPU consuming less than 60 W most of the time, my typical gaming load must be under 250 W for the whole system.

The highest momentary power usage I've seen when benchmarking with uncapped frame rate was 502 W.

Measured with a Voltcraft Energy Check 3000 meter.

Total power consumption of desktop setup (including display);

Approx 145 watts - idle at the desktop without external connected sound system turned on. (I have permanently disabled windows from down clocking the 2nd CCD on my Ryzen 9 9900X because this is a performance gaming rig only)
169 watts - with sound system turned on (Logitech Z906)

Components: See system specs,

Monitor: 34" VA panel @ 3440x1440 - set to factory preset "Racing" with HDR on.

Energy consumption meter: CCI Pty Ltd PW10A link

Typical gaming load (DX11+12 games only) approx 300 - 590 watts

 

[chrcoluk]

Hard to measure, it will be reported as about 108w idle by UPS, but this includes some networking equipment, and PS5 in standby. I will guesstimate about 90-100W.

 

[Hankieroseman]

My old jalopy reports 88 watts on the APC Back-UPS 1350.

 

[JIWIL]

System Rig (7600x) w/ 42" LGC3:

90-120w @ idle depending on what the screen is displaying. Everything except my coffee hotplate is plugged into a UPS, were my values are from.
Includes a USB DAC, 80w 2ch amp, and a small 8" 250w sub. Add about 20w with music playing at uncomfortable levels.

 

[Frick]

Hovering around 220W at idle, but that is with two lamps, soundbar+sub running and the router.
