estimating power consumption underclocked/undervolt c2duo
Posted: Sun Dec 11, 2011 10:53 am
Hello,
I have 1 pc with a gigabyte motherboard and a 3ghz wolfdale c2d.
I underclocked it via bios to 1.6ghz by changing multiplier and FSB to 1.6ghz
I was able to undervolt via bios from 1.15volts to 0.85 volts.
What is the power consumption of my pc? 3ghz wolfdale has TDP of 65 watts.
Can I compare it with this?
SU9600
Like the SU9600 my cpu has 3mb cache, 800mhz FSB. It is also an c2duo.
unlike the SU9600 it has 0.85 volts not 1.050 volts.
SU9600 is listed as 10 watts TDP.
