It's a whole lot but you might find this interesting
average for a decently high-end pc is about 600w
>>52076300
The sum of the rating of the components.
Duh.
Unless you're creating professional videos or playing japaense videogames I'm sure the average swinging dick can get away with a chromebook tbqh

I play japanese video games using integrated graphics and I've never had a game drop 1 frame below max frame rate.
Just wait, in 10 years we won't even need graphics cards.

>>52076300
All the power.

If your computer has 12 fans, then why not connect them to a dynamo and let those fans power your computer?
>>52079304
dynamos don't produce that much energy senpai
>>52079304
Because as soon as you connect those fans to any form of resistance they will stop rotating.
You'll never get any power out of them.

>in ten years
yeah maybe to play mono dimensional twenty teen babby teir games, good luck enjoying modern augmented reality lasertag with any kind of tracking integrety without the latest proprietary gpu banks
>>52079262
>LEDs
>not normal incandescent lightbulbs
you're a smalltime
Really it depends on your components, but with today's builds 750-800w should be sufficient
