How much electricity a home PC (computer) uses if I TURN OFF monitor and only CPU is ON.?

Answer 1

you can search for the formula, and it can tell you by the amount of amps your computer uses, transferred into watts per hour. Should not be hard to google it

Answer 2

it is simple the computer uses up $50,000 monthly. Man you have a power guzzling pc. Time to get a energy star pc. I work for the electric company and boy your pc uses more power than the city of Las Vegas all year. All the power from the Hoover Dam is being used to power your pc. That is the reason why California is having those power outages.

Answer 3

It depends on the CPU, but it will take a LOT less power in the monitor is off. Monitors are power hungry little inventions.

Answer 5

Cool question!!
First if you turn off monitor the your computer is still running not only your cpu.Remember that power come from your outlet to the computer power supply which supplies the motherboard which itself supplies each device connected (cpu and fans, hard drive, memory, cd/dvd drive, floppy drive...).
