Yeah so i leave my machines on usually all the time, mostly for folding and it didn't really hit me but i probably use a shit load of power. Man, i guess if the parents are like woah next month i'll have to tone it down or something, although i do heat the basement with my machines.
 
Download [link=http://files.pcapex.com/details.php?file=19]this PCapex Calculator[/link] and see how much power you are utilizing...?? ;)
 
nice, thats helpful, cause i was thinking crap, i bet i am seriously eating my parents power bill, thanks
 
U r welcome! Btw, how much electricity u r utilizing? Just Curious! I havnt tested it on mine yet as I dont get lot of time to sit on my Personal PC!
 
oh yeah haven't set it up or messed around with it yet, but i will this weekend, and get back with results
 
Im using around 400W, and thats with dual processors, network ports and DVD-RAM drives :P

My Dad was complaining about power usage too... so i sold my firewall (cherry) and gave my server to a mate (Roach)... its now being used for music/msn/web browsing and it dual boots so he can play diablo2 (in windoze)
