•Let’s walk through the math assuming 1 desktop that draws
89w in active mode and 5w in sleep.
|
|
•With no power management we come up with the following.
|
|
•Now let’s assume we put the desktop into sleep in
non-business hours. So during the workday, there is no power management – but
note this is only for 8 hours; during the remaining 16 hours of the day, the
PC is in “Sleep” drawing only 5w/hr not 89w/hr.
|
|
•And this just assumes this cycle is repeated 365 days per
year – which is conservative because its safe to assume no work is being
performed weekends, or roughly 104 days out of the year.
