Posted September 24, 2013 Why do they pull so much power!? Heating (or removing heat) things up requires a lot of energy. An iron, hair dryer, boiler all require massive amounts of power Asrock 890GX Extreme 3 - AMD Phenom II X4 955 @3.50GHz - Arctic Cooling Freezer XTREME Rev.2 - 4GB Kingston HyperX - AMD Radeon HD7850 - Kingston V300 240GB - Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TB - Chieftec APS-750 - Cooler Master HAF912 PLUS osu! profile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted September 24, 2013 Heating (or removing heat) things up requires a lot of energy. An iron, hair dryer, boiler all require massive amounts of power Yes, and massive inefficiencies in the way things are heated. But all heating appliances are crazy power hungry.

Posted September 24, 2013 I can turn the fans on my video card to 20%, play Crysis 3 and generate about 200*F of heat But that's not how hot the air is. An air dryer moves a lot of air and maintains that air at a high temperature, the air your pc exhausts is warmish at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted September 24, 2013 on a glass-half-full note, you can use that hair dryer to inflate a blow-up mattress, so at least it has more than 1 purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
