We measure power consumption at the socket via a calibrated meter – system wide. The monitor is not included in the draw.
Power results were measured at idle and when loading the system in the final ‘combined’ test in 3DMark 11.
The system demands between 105 and 110 watts when idling in the desktop and this rises to around 285 watts when playing games. This is ideal for the 600W power supply because under full load the CX600 will be operating at peak efficiency.
