Comment on Getting in a pickle over hardware
JustEnoughDucks@feddit.nl 1 year agoAs a comparison,
Mine is a 2700X on a B450I with 2 HDDs and 1 NVMe drive at 40W idle. Add an Arc A380 and it idles at 60W. We pay 0.30€ per kWh, so that means to run my server it is 158€ per year without any video transcoding.
Hardware was pretty cheap and it is over-powered, but I pay for it… hopefully getting solar soon!

Oof. I would buy more efficient hardware with those rates too!
