Yep, thats what the ol kill-a-watt tells me.

I just reformatted this weekend and ended up ripping out my sound card and extra network card. I'm now using onboard sound and lan. This dropped me down to 141W at idle.

Specs are:

Athlon xp 2500 barton core
Radeon X800 GTO
Seagate Cheetah ST336607LW 37gb scsi hd
Western Digital Caviar SE16 WD2500KS 250gb sata hd
Enermax EG365P-VE power supply


I'd be interested in knowing how much juice the scsi card and HD eat up.
