1  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: How much power does Bitcoin consume? on: June 09, 2017, 02:37:20 PM



OK so if you're saying I will probably be using 7.2 KWh/day and the energy data for the UK according to the wiki link is € 0.0436 how much would power consumption be a day?

If that is the correct price per KWh (and I have no idea whether it is), then its 7.2 times 0.0436 = € 0.31392 per day.  This is approximate because the 300W power usage was a rough estimate.



OK so you're stating it could be close to £0.40 (GBP) a day of power usage, it doesn't seem so bad.

im also wondering im using a intel i7  desktop, 32gb ram, corsair tx850 psu  (Ultra-quiet 120mm (140mm on TX850W) double ball-bearing fan delivers excellent airflow
80%+ energy efficiency at 20%, 50% and 100% load condition for less heat generation and lower energy bill
99% Active Power Factor Correction provides clean and reliable power to your system)

now i run this unit 24 hours a day , day and night and bill comes to ab out 400  every quarter and thatd with all other devices and evrything else
now i currently have slushpool running on my laptop which is probably cheaper to mine with  , but wondering if i start to run slush pool on the other machine (above if it would make any difference to running costs)
