So I do suggest you get some sort of energy monitor plug for your desktop and realize that it probably already uses less power than you think it does. I was very surprised at the efficiency once I did that.

very surprised at the efficiency i remember hooking ours up to a 10th gen celeron desktop (supposedly 58w cpu). the whole box doesn’t even hit 20w at the wall under a full load, and it idles awake at about 5w. i immediately set that one aside for future use to feed media to a tv or run a dietpi or something.
