I do not have a rack so this would be more floor/back room space.  If
a desktop PC costs you £30 a month, power is much more expensive in
the UK than here in Canada with all our flowing hydro.  Our cost is
£0.036/kWh.  But we only have 120V systems here so it would need to be
a North American spec power supply and it couldn't be too monster of a
system.
