vstar Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Question please, has anyone measured the actual power consumption on a hc300 and a hc200 and compared them?I would expect the hc200 to be less but how much less I am curious. I have a "kill a watt monitor" in one of my junk bins but cant seem to locate it currently unfortunately. I am trying to decide if it it worth while switching out a couple of hc300's to 200's if it is significantly less, I do have spare 200's so its really only a time investment but if its not a noticeable savings in electricity its not worth the time and effort.thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louisraza1 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Honnestly keep your hc300 on your system. I"m pretty sure the 300 and the hc200 is really far because they praticly have the same power bloc and depend on how big your system is the hc200 is more slower than the hc300.

thecodeman Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 the 300 is faster than the 200? maybe if you're talking about the rev2 of the 300 vs the first gen 200 - the v2 had an approximate 30% increase in cpu horsepower - however they used the same chipset with different I/O boards if I recall. So the V1 of the 200 and 300 and v2 of the 200 and 300 should be the same compared to each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vstar Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 I found my Kill-a-watt energy meter so I will try and take some measurements over the weekend and i will post my findings in case anyone is interested in actual consumption comparisons.
