We measure the system power consumption at the wall – not factoring in the monitor. We test when idle – then when loading with Cinebench R15 and the ‘combined' test in 3Dmark11.

When idle, the system was consuming around 40 watts of power at the socket. When all the cores are loaded in Cinebench the power demand rises to 109 watts. When the last ‘combined' test in 3DMark 11 is initiated, the power demand moves between 85 watts and 110 watts. We took the average over repeated runs – just under 100 watts.
