I was reading a review of it earlier and on a motherboard with >> ATI/AMD 690 chipset (with onboard graphics) it only uses about 59W. > > Sounds "cool" > >> E-Buyer are doing the slightly slower BE-2300 chip for about £50 inc >> VAT. After reading the review I've decided I want one. The BE-2350 >> supposedly even overclocks to 3GHz per core although it didn't say what >> the consumption was on that. > > On a slightly related note, who was it that mentioned about power meters > (plug in to mains, plug device in to it, get reading for power > consumption) as we're looking at getting a similar thing for the office so > that we can calculate how much power we would save by turning things off > overnight.. > It was Leighton who was at the OSC Computing for Profit meeting.
