And in the meantime, City Power has decided to raise its rates to up to 48 cents a kWh. So instead of 92.4 cents, perhaps it should be R1.34 for 8 hours on the computer. Don Pierre,

Hi
thanks, so to clarify:
average computer running for 8 hours
350w x 8 hour divide by 1000= 2.8kwh

2.8 x .3302 = R0.924, or simply, an average computer, based on it’s PSU of 350w, will cost 92.4c to run for 8 hours?
