How much does it cost to quit on the computer on adjectives darkness?


How much does it cost to quit on the computer on adjectives darkness?

Well try this out, If you put the part into sleep, or power-saver mode ( monitor and hdd go into shut down mode ) you are probably looking at just about 50 to 100 watts per hour, or 0.05 to 0.10 Kw-hr of power, and at $0.10 per Kw-hr, its 1/2 penny to 1 penny per hour ( 5 to 10 cents per night ). If your PC is up and running at full bore, numeral 10 times that ( 5 to 10 cents per hour )



Most PCs have 400 to 700 watt power supply ( but at commonplace full load 200 to 500 watts ( some giant performance gaming PCs use a bit more ) later add a CRT monitor 150 to 300 watts ( LCD is a bit smaller quantity ). Now your PC isn't always at full nouns, and in reality probably only running an average 30% of full nouns during use. So based on which type of appliance, and how you are using it you can adjust your approximate costs toward teh high or low back of the scale.

Hope that help

42 cents :) Really it does.
It all depends on how much you settle up for electricity, and how much power your computer uses. But in any valise, it's not going to cost much (If I had to guess, I'd say aloud in the 1-30 cent range). :)
