    How much power does your PC use?

    as mussels has said the main reason for my lower idle wattage is my mobo, it was one of the key reasons i decided on the mobo in the first place. also if i have worked out my KJ usage for wprime correctly i come out at 28.9 KJ (200.827 * 144 = 28919.088 (28.9 KJ )).

    Upgrade Graphic card or CPU for Farcry 3

    Hello and welcome to TPU. Thanks in advance for filling out your system specs. What sort of budget are you looking at ? your 5850 will be ok for games, a new cpu/ mobo/ ram would be the biggest leap forward, but once again it all depends on budget.
