    Ouch £150!

    I'll be mainly using the pcs / laptop at work and my gaming rig at home only for a couple of hours.
    Will not get sucked into the numbers game, I just see it as doing something good for charity and leaving the numbers to the big boys.

    This is why I only fold in winter.. Folding for 6 months costs me around 250 - 300 squid.

    Therefore I cant justify that when im opening windows to let heat out...

    If it stops me putting a fan heater on... Its a much better use of power....

    For a decent rig (CPU) think

    250w

    x 24 = 6kwh

    So about a quid a day probably with some variables chucked in.

    Sorry, WHAT?! I lived in university accommodation for my first year and had to pay every penny of electricity that was used... and that included the heating - the rent was expensive enough as it was!

    Damn kids these days don't know how lucky they are :grr:

    And then you think of all the times you got yourself some EZ poontang and then you realise it was SO worth it.
