I'm going start off by saying I'm brand new to this forum so if this is in the wrong section I apologise. On to the topic:
This isn't for me, but for a friend who lives in a dorm with a power box that is expensive to run. So basically he wants a system with medium gaming power that has the lowest wattage possible. He mostly plays things like CS:GO and Overwatch, and he'd like to be playing some AAA games like BF1 and Dishonored 2 even if at the lowest settings possible at 1080p. He's asked me for help because I'm decently computer-savvy and he's got a budget of $700. Only I have no idea where to start when trying to configure for efficient power consumption.
Thoughts, comments and suggestions are all greatly appreciated. Cheers.
