The 1000W would then draw 300/0.7 = 428W and the 500W supply would draw 300/0.85= 352W 428/352 is 1.21 i.e. 21% more power is used. = 73W. Given a more normal estimate of 80% and 85%. 300/0.8 = 375, 375/352 = 6% more power = 23W. The size of PSU is only relevant in that the efficiency at a given wattage will be different, yes 20% of 1000 is
Computer power supplies are rated in their DC capacity, ideally a 600W computer power supply can supply 600W of DC power but only supplies as much as the system needs so its not supplying 600W all the time, it will pull significantly more than this from the wall since its not 100% efficient, normal power supplies are 80-90% efficient these days so to deliver 600W at full load would pull 667
Like all the other parts of your body, your brain needs energy to operate. Simon Laughlin, professor in the department of zoology at Cambridge University, explains why the brain needs so much energy, how it uses energy, and how those needs have affected our evolution.
A device using 100 watts over 10 hours would utilize 1 kWh of energy (because 100x10 = 1,000 = 1kW). The Wikipedia example: a 40-watt bulb used for 25 hours (40x25 = 1,000 watts = 1 kW) would use
