I’ll just come out and say it: 50W. I know, I know an order of magnitude above what’s actually needed to host websites, media center and image gallery.

But it is a computer I had on-hand and which would be turned on a quarter of the day anyway. And these 50W also warm my home, although this is less efficient than the heat pump, of course.

What’s your usage? What do you host?

        dell powerconnect 8164’s and arista 7050tx’s . House is wired with copper so 10 gig copper is what I have to use and that’s power hungry.

      Damn, your switches are using that much? I have a MikroTik CRS518 and it’s using like 40 Watts on idle (transceivers not included)
