    Well, that's less than I feared. I'll try to get hold of a kill-a-watt or equivalent here and run it for the 20-odd projects I'm involved in.

    some 3DMark (2013) tests with a Haswell Pentium G3258 + 7790 were mildly interesting:

    52 watts at idle

    x264: 80 watts

    world community grid: 79 watts

    with a Radeon 7790:

    as i ran 3DMark, the wattage usually increased: Ice Storm and Cloud Gate (complex scenes) started at 145 watts, then hit up to 160 (ignoring peaks of 165; one or two moments higher) ...also 95 watts on CPU physics

    Sky Dive hit 187-198 watts (103 watts on CPU physics)

    Fire Strike actually started at 150 or so, and edged its way up to 180 (plus a few spikes into 190), but was overall lower than skydive o_O

    added new HDDless i7-860 setup, i7-4790, Ryzen 2400G.

    yay necroposting! \o/

    oh, Enigma@Home on H7790 only added about 65 or 75 watts to the 860. can't remember exactly

    anyone else have a Kill-A-Watt and want to pitch in their numbers?

    see the first post. also my new board arrived sooner than expected (was monday last i checked). power consumption lowered a few watts just with a different board, VRMs!

    AB350M-DS3H = crappy 4C10N/4C06N, teeny wickle VRM cooler = 86C on the VRMs

    B450M Mortar = slightly better VRMs with 25% less heat, better VRM cooler = 65C on the VRMs

    the DS3H is ok with the Ryzen 2200/2400G, tho.

    I use reverse sorting (most recent message on top), for me it was the last message -and I encountered another table sooner.

    Threadripper 1950X added. interestingly, same power consumption for Blender (Sheep-it) opposed to 32 threads of WCG. and 16 threads of WCG is just 3 watts lower
