Power Consumption & Temperatures
Power Consumption
[HR][/HR]For testing power consumption, we used a plug-in electricity monitor to show the overall system wattage used when at idle and at load states. This gave a clear comparison between each system.
Temperatures
[HR][/HR]Temperatures were very tricky to include, as three different software packages informed us of various temperatures, sometimes with a variance of up to 20 degrees between applications. We decided to stick with one and to use that as a guide, as the sensor on these boards for the CPU isn’t fantastic and most temperature software will require a little configuration to get things perfect.
