Can use PSU calculator to calculate the approximate watts you'll be running on your system.

Shouldn't this be in Hardware Questions & Answers  hmm.gif

the psu calculator is inaccurate.. or should i call it.. crap

i used it and it tell that my power consumption at min loading(60%, lowest setting) is 271watts with cap aging 20%, cpu utilization 50%( lowest setting)

while my APC tells me 184 watts

almost 100watts off...
