doesn't it concern you that you're using a very overpowered computer using loads of energy just to post on a anime website?
>>
Piss off mom I need those anime tidds
>>
No, because thats only the capacity of the PSU. Maybe I would be using large amounts of power at load, but not just to shitpost. But fairly decent bait, I replied even.
>>
Low load = low drain

PSU does not run at full load 24/7 m8.

>OP seriously thinks my 5000W PSU draws 5000W all the time

CERTIFIED RETARD

You're probably still using more power than you should if you went with a lower capacity PSU, Peak efficiency is at about 50% load (sometimes 80%). 10% load for example is some 78% efficient on gold, which would be when you're using say a 6700k to shitpost on a 1500W (or 1000W) PSU.

CPUs and GPUs have only gotten more efficient, my computer today uses far less power while web browsing than my computer did in 2007.

I have a 600w 80+ titanium rated PSU that rarely sees over 300w power draw.

I don't watch anime.

Instead of worrying about the "wasted power" on your computer's PSU, why don't you spend your effort on getting much better power savings from shit like light bulbs?

you are wrong
low end 500w below psu's uses more power than a 1000watt high end titanium rated psu
>>
>>55205294
I'm right. I implied lower capacity power supplies with identical efficiency certifications (i.e. gold, titanium, etc.)
