Power Usage numbers

[ochadd]

Picked up a P3 Kill-a-watt and have been unplugging everything around here lately. Feel free to post your numbers if you've got them:


Dell mini9 w/ ssd
1 watt off
1 watt standby
14 watt boot
10 watt in use


Dell 15.5" laptop AMD 1.6 turion x2, OCZ vertex
57 watt Full load SETi, screen on

Dell 14" laptop Intel 2 ghz T7250
49 watt Full load SETi, screen on

Compaq 14" laptop celeron 2.4 single core
67 watt boot
50 watt idle

Dell 20" Widescreen LCD
1 watt off
42 watt use

Atom 330, 300 watt 80+ Seasonic
30 watt in use
41 watt Full load SETi, USB flash drive as main drive

Benq 24" LCD
44 watt

System in sig no monitor
151 watts idle
195 watts CPU full load
274 watts GPU and CPU crunching SETi

Edit:
Toaster 2 slots = 950 watts
Microwave = 1220 watts on, 20 watts sitting
Coffee Pot = 930 watts
Rotary fan = 42 watts high, 33 low

System in sig draws around 400 watts.

My pool pump draws close to 1,000.

46 inch Bravia TV draws around 240-250 watts.

Have you tried finding an optimal power/brightness setting on your monitor? I found I could lower my power usage on my samsung 24 inch from 75 watts to 25 watts, lowering as much as i could while still finding it acceptable.

My rigs

Gaming Rig (in sig)
Idle - 120 watts
Normal Gaming - 190 watts
100% cpu/gpu - 230 watts

HTPC (In sig)
Idle - 30 watts
Cpu 100% - 70 watts


I just finished build an ITX gaming rig for a friend, with low power consumption in mind. Low power to fit on the SFF PSU and for environmental reasons. With a low power 9600gt and e5200 overclocked to 3.5 ghz, it runs at:
Idle - 65 watts
Gaming - 120 watts
100% - 150 watts

Total power consumption for PC's really interests me, so I'd love to know other peoples numbers

These are for system numbers and not just the processor. The AMD and Intel T7250 numbers are laptops and the power measurement was taken with the screens on

e7400 4.0 + GTX 260 1400 shaders = 8500-10212 ppd
$1 = 14363 points @ 8500 ppd
$1 = 17256 points @ 10212 ppd

e6750 2.66 = 1190 ppd
$1 = 4553 points

AMD X2 1.6 = 450 ppd
$1 = 3650 points

Intel T7250 2.0 = 864 ppd
$1 = 8086 points

Atom 330 = 350 ppd
$1 = 4264 points

Counting only the difference in power usage between idle and 100% load assuming they are going to be running regardless:

e7400 GTX 260 = 3,102,500 ppy = $96.97
$1 = 31994 points

Atom 330 = 127,750 ppy = $6.30
$1 = 20277 points

e6750 = 434,350 ppy = $37.84
$1 = 11478 points
