PC Energy Efficiency Tips

Energy efficient computers? Do they really save you money? Did you realize that your one computer and monitor can suck up nearly as much power in a year as a new refrigerator? I'm not kidding - this is true.

So, knowing how to run your PC as efficiently as possible can yield you some great cost savings on your electrical bills.

Here's HOW-- You can use your PC's "standby" power saving mode to put your PC to sleep when you're going to take a break from using it.

I love standby because it's conserves power. Basically, your entire computer switches to a low-power state.

By the way, you'll still want to completely shut down your PC and turn off its power strip when you’re done using it for the day. Shut down is the ultimate power saver and it’ll keep your PC on a good power diet.
