Hello! I was just curious, how much electrical energy my system here needs to run a LL-Test. Even if you don't let the system run if it is not used otherwise, it seems to be quite a lot.
On my P-III 933 (WIN XP), Prime95 needs about 15W power (measured with an energy-monitor). That adds up to about 9 kWh for an exponent in the 13M range for this system here. That does not even include the raised power-reqs for the power-supply fan due to increased thermal load because i did not run the test a long time... Perhaps it would be interesting to find the system thats optimal for LL-tests energywise ;) Ciao, Lars _________________________________________________________________________ Unsubscribe & list info -- http://www.ndatech.com/mersenne/signup.htm Mersenne Prime FAQ -- http://www.tasam.com/~lrwiman/FAQ-mers
