Hi guys..
After reading some threads over the web I saw a lot of talk about power consumption.
I know my new gaming pc will consume more than my laptop but how much more? What is the monthly impact?
Because of my work I can only play for a certain amount of time per day excluding saturdays were I can play for longer. Lets assume I use the pc for 30~35h weekly, that gives around 120~140h per month. Since I will also be browsing the web and watching videos and stuff, and I might have weeks where ill be more on ps4 lets set the gaming pc usage to 125h monthly. The pc Is an i5 4690k, gigabyte gtx 970 g1gaming 1x8gb g skill ripjaws, gigabyte z97x gaming 5, samsung 840 evo 250gb, 1tb western caviar blue, XFX 650 XTR, in a cooler master n600 with 2 stock fans. Plus an asus 23" led screen.
Im not sure how is the price here in portugal but Ill check it . So what I wanted is someone to explain me the math to do so that I can see later and how much this build can be power hungry.
Thanks
