Looking for low power CPUs (very rare in SA) .... loadshedding
Why not just downclock your cpu..ie have a downclocked profile for shedding
That is what a T model cpu is just normal cpu limited to a lower base mode freq , but will boost higher if used with a. Better. Cooler than what they are normally paired with and use more power again and if the boost freq of the T is the same as normal cpu it would mean no power saving at all since it will boost under use
The same power savings can be had , with the gpu too by dragging the max power usage slider in msi afterburner, down as low as you are willing to go ,ie find the sweet spot where gaming fps is still acceptable but sips a lot less power , ie you may find 80% the performance with 50% power usage , having vsync enabled will also save a little bit of power as the gpu aims only to supply frames at the rate your screen can refresh never more
Sure if not under strain idling the cpu will save power as the cpu usage is low it will return to base freq
Have not used ebay recently
If shippers use economy international shipping , then yes it gets handed over to sapo
The customs handling fee is cheaper ie used to be R40 ish (while couriers have higher customs handling fee)
And it takes more than a month
And i believe certain economy bag shipping methods the ones wish sellers love to use have gotten another levy R20-30 (outdated info maybe)
