Overall HW TDP decreases, but PSU units go up in power

Is the only the king of the throne thing?

I have a feeling the the potential group of buyers really dont care about hibernation, or have it enabled for that sake, nor do they really care about saving power that much..

Well, that is a good point! Specially if you have a chiller and/or phase change for your system too...

I'm in search for a new home now and one of my priorities is to have multiple 20A circuits available... right now I'm using 3 different lines, but I'm lucky to have them...

Same Z, I have a heavy duty extension cord that runs down stairs to outlet in kitchen, otherwise I pop the breaker, With a 6 core and 2 big vid cards I use a 1200 for every thing except vid cards and 1500 watt psu for vid cards

It's times like these I'm glad I live in a country that uses 230Vac.

My office has 220V and a 40A breaker in it. When they did the build out, I made sure of it. :cool: I got buddies of mine with epic rigs as well and they pop breakers a lot. There's a Jacuzzi on the opposite side of the wall and I'm on the same circuit so as long as I'm not in the tub when my PC is on...

Wait... Back up a minute. You have a Jacuzzi in your office? Man, that's cool.

He said "on the opposite side of the wall"... but still close enough... 🙂
