Comment on Got myself some energy monitoring Zigbee plugs and made an interesting discovery
lka1988@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks agoI’m eyeballing HWINFO64, it’s saying my GPU is idling at ~28W and the CPU is idling at ~36W. Add a couple watts for the fans, various peripherals, and waste heat; it’s close to what I saw earlier.

36 Watts idle sounds like a lot for a 5800X3D. I’ll see what my 5700X3D does, never checked that. Not in software and not at the wall.
