A 5090 and an Intel? Cause most gaming PCs would be around 600w at full tilt, you'd need to play for 25 hours

Mines at 200W playing Far cry 5 with all the settings maxed out. But I only play at 2560x1080p. The power consumption includes the monitor.

But then again, you can’t exactly call my PC a gaming one. It can play new games but not at the 4k stuff guys are doing out there. It does well at 1080p and 75Hz which is what my monitor maxes at.

That's my wives gaming laptop :). My pc pulls 400 to 550w when playing games.
The xbox and the TV do almost the same

You sure you don't have a crypto mining virus?

14700k and 4090 and I don't even hit 200w when idling

Edit : Forgot about the display, are you using 200w on a max brightness TV and sound system with your PC or something?

I have a 31 inch and it uses no more than 40W. Monitors dont use much to be honest.

Monitor is 250w on idle. Just switched back to the Samsung 4K's to save power. Idle load has dropped by half.
Ugh. Going to take me a while to get used to flat screen again. whole thing looks odd.

Having a PC, 2 inverters and a Geyser controller in 1 room sure does make for a warm room. The gas heater in that room has not worked at all this winter. Just keep the doors and windows closed and the temp inside rises enough to not need one.

Damn! Is this a TV you are gaming on? My 75 inch barely crosses 200W.

This is the specs for my monitor. My 40W was an over estimate.

Panels getting a good wash now. Doesn't do my heart any good having to use Eskum.
