How much power (in one hour) does your computer take?

I need this for a school project and I have a really old computer. Please count CPU and monitor. Thanks in advance!

it really depends on the processor. A pentium 4 uses around 40 watts. It can use up to 100 watts on full usage. That is with the northwood core on 130NM process. A monitor usually uses 100watts.
