Re: Intel Core i3-2100 vs. AMD Phenom II X2 565
I just wanted to give an update stating that I just built an i5-2400 machine and it idles at about 30 watts at the wall. This makes sense given the estimated DC wattage in the article. If I got a picoPSU, I could probably save an additional 10 watts. i5-2400 Intel DH67BL motherboard OCZ Vertex 2 SSD...

Re: Intel Core i3-2100 vs. AMD Phenom II X2 565
I built a 1090T system that I use for encoding now. After modifying P-states, it idles at a little more than 50w at the wall. In short, I am not looking to match the performance of my Q9550 since that system is only used for ripping movies and recording and playing back TV. If anything, I will proba...

Re: Intel Core i3-2100 vs. AMD Phenom II X2 565
http://www.silentpcreview.com/article1143-page5.html In the above review, the 2100 idles at around 20w DC (~30w at the wall). In this review, the 2100 idles at close to 40w DC (~50w at the wall). jeffy1021, I agree and raised this in the post above , but the discussion went other ways. These are bi...

Re: Intel Core i3-2100 vs. AMD Phenom II X2 565
I am trying to compare the 2100 power consumption on this review to a previous one done for H67 motherboards and was wondering if a direct comparison can (or should) be made. http://www.silentpcreview.com/article1143-page5.html In the above review, the 2100 idles at around 20w DC (~30w at the wall)....

Re: Intel Core i3-2100 vs. AMD Phenom II X2 565
I have been keeping my eye out for reviews on the i3 2100. The Zacate based motherboards also look interesting to me and if the power draws are similar, I would rather have more horsepower available in the 2100 if I need it. I am still trying to decide whether or not it is worth upgrading my current...

Re: power supply for Asus E35M1-M or ZOTAC IONITX-P-E
I am currently using an HTPC powered by a Q9550 and am looking to replace my rig with a more efficient one and only use the Q9550 box for when I am encoding. The two candidates I am considering to replace my current setup are the Asus E35M1-M and Zotac IONITX-P-E. I know that there are possible iss...
