I always wanted to know how much energy my machines need to crunch.
I bought last a Watt measure unit and have now some values of my machines.

840 W, max 874 W V8-Xeon (1 GTX570, 2 GTX470)
230 W, max 270 W P4 with AGP HD4670
  66 W,  laptop i3, GT540M
  31 W,  R3600 ION
-------------------------------------
1167 W  for all my machines
1,167 KWh
28,008 KWh per day
840,24 KWh per month

If now the price per KWh is known you can calculate your crunching costs.
In my case in France we have 8 hours/day to 0.0567 Euro and 16 hours/day 0,0916 Euro per KWh
280,08 KWh * 0.0567 Euro = 15,88 Euro
560.16 KWh * 0,0916 Euro = 51,31 Euro
--------------------------------------------------
summary 67,19 Euro
+ 19,5% Mwst = 13,10 Euro
+ power-connection costs/month = 7,50 Euro
--------------------------------------------------------
Total = 87,79 Euro/month  without internet connection costs

actual credit/month is 36,763,527


87,79 Euro / 36,763527 Mio cc = 2,387964571516764 Euro per Mio cc
Today I have 326,832403 Mio credit
326,832403 Mio * 2,387964571516764 Euro/Mio  = 780,4641991876895 Euro

my summary total crunching cost ~ 780,46 Euro
------------------------------------------------------------
Remark:
in Germany the price per KWh is 0,24 Euro strompreise-Deutschland
840,24 KWh / month * 0,24 Euro = 201,66 Euro/month in Germany
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
201,66 Euro/month in Germany

87,79 Euro/month in France

happy crunching in France,  bleu blanc rouge

That can´t be true Heinz.

I´m consuming 10.000 KW a year (dont ask) all in all.
I (only) pay €180 a month all together.

My FX is very power hungry even overclocked.

[_heinz]

That can´t be true Heinz.

Hi Mike,
all depends how many Graphicadapters are set into your FX,
perhaps you will be surprized if you test the power with a Watt-meter.
V8-Xeon has 3 graphicadapters( 1 GTX570 + 2 GTX470)
GTX570 runs at 832MHz
GTX470 runs at 730MHz
GTX470 runs at 730MHz
measured max power is 3,84 Ampere
220V * 3,84A = 844VA =844W =0,844KW for V8-Xeon,
what I have seen its is no big difference if i suspend work on all 8 cpus or not.
will make some measurement in the next days to document it.

_heinz, can you do an updated AP v6 Atom app when you have a chance please, while r555 & r557 are faster than r409 on an Atom, they are nowhere near as fast as your special Atom builds,
See the FFTW 3.3.1 static library development thread for benches on my Atom N450

Hi Claggy, have seen it... be patient...have a lot around my ears at the moment.

what I have seen its is no big difference if i suspend work on all 8 cpus or not.
will make some measurement in the next days to document it.

some new measurement for V8-Xeon
~300W if I switch on the machine, selftest, no OS loaded
~286W windows is ready, logonscreen
~830W crunching distributed network on all 3 grapicadapters and run on 8 cpu's primegrids Sophie Germain (LLR)
~743W suspend work on CPU's, still GPU work is done
~370W suspend work on GPU's, wait till all fans are down, allow work on CPU's
means primegrid Sophie Germain (LLR) need still ~70W-90W to run on all 8 CPU's
The crunching 3 GPU's need then 743W -300W = 443W ,because the machine's base load power is ~300W.

summary we can say 2GTX470 + 1GTX570 need 450W for crunching (GPU load 99%)

the relation between the power of  3GPU/ 8CPU is 443W / 70W  = 6,33 : 1

Total power of the crunching v8-Xeon is ~840W (820 - 860)

Picture of the link shows GTX570 of V8-Xeon crunching.
EVGA_PRECISION_X_3.0.1 is available for download on the EVGA-site
It supports the new GTX680.

_heinz

[_heinz]

with the new EVGA-tool I screwed up the frequency of the GPU-adapters.
Have a look at the pictures:
GPU1_570 842MHz
GPU2_470 770MHz
GPU3_470 780MHz

As I'm running primegrid "The Riesel Problem LLR 6.13" it comes to a v8-xeon_overheating
CPU2 70 grd C
FBDIMM2 104 grd C
FBDIMM3 102 grd C
FBDIMM4 100 grd C

Still GPU2 run up to 100 grd and clocked down from 770 to 405MHz
GPU1 72 grd C
GPU3 80 grd C

v8-Xeon with triple oced NV-adapters

GTX570
GPU Takt (Geometric Domain)   850 MHz  (Original: 732 MHz, overclock: 16%)
GPU Takt (Shader Domain)   1700 MHz  (Original: 1464 MHz, overclock: 16%)

GTX470
GPU Takt (Geometric Domain)   770 MHz  (Original: 607 MHz, overclock: 27%)
GPU Takt (Shader Domain)   1540 MHz  (Original: 1215 MHz, overclock: 27%)

GTX470
GPU Takt (Geometric Domain)   780 MHz  (Original: 607 MHz, overclock: 29%)
GPU Takt (Shader Domain)   1560 MHz  (Original: 1215 MHz, overclock: 28%)

so far the old GTX470 are good overclocked, all air cooled
