Well, considering that the PSU is only a 90 watt-er, a simple motherboard with only on-board i810, low amount of RAM, no daughterboards, etc., it's going to use less power than a new box full of stuff, with heatsinks radiating heat everywhere... And it certainly can't draw as much power as the other box with the 400 watt supply. And you can feel the heat difference between the different PCs. It's lower power, not radically lower, but still lower than using an over-powered PC. The electricity usage isn't that much of an issue, but being in a room with a /radiator/ always running is. I certainly notice such things (PCs that are hotter than others) when we have several 40 degree C days in a row. It's obvious you didn't even read my link. Please read my link. |
