Wattage constantly changed by like 15W for the Aquamark and 3DMark tests, reported are my personally guessed averages. Yes that means my Toledo hit the 300W mark.

AHHH! I need more computing power! Fucking college. lol

My computing desk here consisting of a laptop, a desktop, a light, a CRT monitor, speakers, an external HDD, DSL modem/router, etc., uses on average, 5W LESS electricity than my Toledo PC in sig BY ITSELF. NOOOOO ><

You have WAY to much time on your hands.

300W at 120VAC is 2.5A 48Ohms.
