roger04 Posted August 31, 2003 Share Posted August 31, 2003 I wonder how much $ it will cost in my electicity bill if I leave my pc on for a month without shutting it down? And does it helps to save electicity/energy if I off my monitor when I'm away/sleeping? I'm curious to know .. thanks..My pc:2.0 Ghz256 DDRAMMSI motherboardGeforce2 MX400 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinker Posted August 31, 2003 Share Posted August 31, 2003 I have 2 to 4 PC's on 24/7. The cost of doing this is small compared to running the air conditioning. For me it is not worth worrying about.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b0r3d Posted September 1, 2003 Share Posted September 1, 2003 I think it costs something like 20 cents to turn a light on, but 2cents per hour to keep it running.In comparasin to your computer, its more cost effective to keep it running, rather than constantly booting up/shutting down. Its also better for your computer's innards too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
