Computer wattage results

[scwam]

Got my Seasonic power monitor today. Did some inital measurement on my Abit Av8 (K8T900) motherboard with Opteron 170 and PNY 6800GT wattage tests.

Stock on everything system runs about 130watts idle:

Sp2004 (1 core) = 155 wattts
Sp2004 (both cores) 185 watts

CPU Burn in is about 8 watts less on 1 core and a total of 15 - 20 watts less both cores burning at stock.

195-200 watts gamming
10 more watts when AA/AA is maxed out
220-225 watts when 6800GT is overclocked and aa/af maxed out.
