how much power is my pc using?

varun mst · Nov 25, 2014

I am using my pc to download something , so i have to put it in ideal mode , i am using power saving mode and my screen turns off after 1 min

my pc specs are here

CPU intel pentium dual core e5400 2.7 Ghz

2 gb ram

300 gb samsung harddisk

250 v psu

and intergrated gpu - intel G41 Express chipset

and my cpu fan runs around 1400 rpm

how much power is my pc consuming , cause it runs all day and i dont want leavy electric billing.
Thanks!

very low power system. nothing to worry about beyond like leaving a lamp on all day.

iron8orn :

my psu is kind of a crappy manufature , is it giving my pc power as much needed ,
or it is giving straight 250v.

I think maybe your confusing volts with watts.

Even if it is a crappy maker your system is only going to draw as much power as it needs.

iron8orn :

yeah , but my system still cant run games beyond 60 frames on 720p , i think adding 8 gm ram will sort that out
