New computers today have 1000 Watt power supplies available, with dual graphics cards etc etc etc.. so they really can pull near the full capacity with normal use (by a gamer or video editor).

Very much agreed, itā??s not that they arenā??t crazy. But they would get to many false positives if the consumption level was too low. It needs to be so high that very very few normal people would use that much power.


now think of a rich family. 3 kids, each with computers, stereos, ipods, tv's, dvd players. and the parents with a big ass tv and surround system.

all that shit uses a lot of power. even when it's off it adds up
