I'd hate to see the power bill. :P

 

They have one for that already I thought.

I have a workstation, gaming pc, two ps3s, a nas server, a server/router, a lot of audio gear. My bill is 400-500 a month

Unless you are running them all wide open 24/7 I'd say they account for less than 10% of your kWh per month. I spend more running the AC to overcome the heat output than the consumption of the electronic themselves.

$11.80/mo for me to run my PC for 18 hrs a day here. More than 10% of his bill, but certainly less than 25%.

RIP. May your framerates be high, and your temperatures low. And pray to Lord GabeN to spare your power bill.

Yeah I was looking at getting a few asic miners and I estimated at my rates I would LOSE 5000 dollars a year and make 1200. (with great luck in the pools as well)
