It depends. At idle with all the power saving enabled 20 - 30W (maybe less) -- Full load 125W (spec value). There are lots of google articles on 8350 wattage.
I´ve googled around a lot the last few days about the power consumption. Some articles say that the power comsumption is around 280 watt some say its 220watt.......
Why can´t AMD just give us costumers some numbers. :/
