Note this doesn't count the other parts in your computer. http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/299 Title: Re: Program for power consumption? Post by: bho on August 14, 2011, 10:58:53 PM NINJA--:
Software estimates of your power consumption can be pretty inaccurate. The best way to measure is with a physical device like a KILL A WATT (http://www.p3international.com/products/special/P4400/P4400-CE.html). Title: Re: Program for power consumption?
