What is the power consumption of desktop pc in standby/sleep mode if the pc power unit is rated 650W?
March 31st, 2009 by admin
My desktop power unit is rated 450W. This is connected to the mains via an UPS with a capacity of 650W. My queries are:
1. Is my pc consuming 450W or 650W (assuming only the pc is connected)?
2. In the pc standby or sleep mode, what is the power consumption? (the LCD monitor is 33W but consumes <1W in the standby/sleep mode).
Thanks for the help.
Well it depends on your computer-up to 30Watts-the newer ones 15W.Although shut off your computers PSU uses up to 5 Watts-hold your hand on your computer where the PSU is-IS IT WARM?
