Comment on Prototype of RTX 5090 Appears With Four 16-Pin Power Connectors, Capable of Delivering 2,400W
brot@feddit.org 4 weeks agoJust imagine the costs of running such a system on European energy prices. We’re at ~0,35€/kWh here in Germany currently. That means that an hour of running this will cost you 0,84€. Add to that the energy use of the CPU, mainboard, Monitor and you’re paying well over 1€ per hour of gaming.

Judges you French 0.20€/kWh nuclear prices
If only you guys had listened to the science…

Let’s not start a discussion about nuclear energy here. France has enormous subvention on electricity and Germany a lot of taxes. And both countries have issues in their energy system, so yeah

France has taken away electricity subventions a long time ago, they were temporary relief during COVID only.
In fact, there are pretty high taxes here too, just the base cost is lower.
And I started this debate to challenge the notion that all of Europe doesn’t have as unreasonable prices as Germany does.

The nuclear and hydro over here in Canada puts us around 0.10€/kwh on average. Really wish processes for nuclear were streamlined decades ago, power would be even better now if it was

I’m a little jealous of you guys, but we have mostly maxed out our potential in Europe for hydro power already…
