It seems comical to have a CPU more powerful than a space heater people use to heat their rooms in the winter. I also wonder if it's even possible to use a 110v circuit in most houses for this, considering it would create a computer pulling atleast 2500-3000 watts, something most single outlets in a standard home can't handle.
Would be funny to start seeing people run 220v to their offices for their computer.
- JonChesterfield 3y agoSome 2kW power supplies come with weird cables to handle 110V. Slightly annoying for a 230V domestic setup but 3kW from a single socket is fine in Europe. Not totally encouraged of course.
- nicenewtemp84 3y agoYou're talking about 15amp setups in both cases, which is what I was talking about, even including the point that Americans might have to start wiring their offices with 220v just like we currently wire our kitchens and laundry rooms.
