There are lots of things to take in account with my system. I've got a 4.1 altec lansing sound system sometimes I play.... that means we'd have to figure out how much power the amp consumes dependent on the gain. Also if your reading CDs or playing a DVD the CD roms spool up and consume more power, or if your archiving a CD with a burner that will consume more power from 2 spinning CDroms. I also have monitor warm up time... well u guys may not have that but my monitor warms up for 30 minutes before I can watch DVDs without ghosting.
So to make an accurate test of power consumption for a computer, you'd have to just run a computer in your house and don't use anything else that involves power. Then see what your bill is at the end of the month
Or spend one month without using your computer and see how much money you saved. Which ever one is easier lol
