Idle power of an N100 will likely be around 10W or so, about 5x the RPi5s. But sure, if that's a concern then the Pis or clones might be a better option.

- Marsymars 2y ago> Idle power of an N100 will likely be around 10W or so, about 5x the RPi5s. A system that's appropriately designed for low power draw should be notably less than that. I've got an N305 laptop that I'm using as a home server that idles at 4-5W.
- magicalhippo 2y agoYeah I'm not discounting it. My vanilla N100 box measures about 7W at the wall idling on the KDE Neon desktop. No modifications done to reduce power draw, and it includes the wall-wart that came with it.
