I've got an old PowerEdge tower server sitting in my basement that I picked up for $300 on eBay. Dual 6-core Xeons. It's running probably 7 Ubuntu VM's in Hyper-V and not even breaking a sweat. Still need to get the GPU passthrough for Jellyfin configured though.

Eating $70 in power a month.

It might if it were really working hard but at idle it draws around 160 watts.

Edit: I was close. 140 watts.

My 5700g proxmox host, switches, access points, and modem use 120 watts according to my UPS. That's $10/month in my $0.12/kWh geographical area.

How much power does this thing draw?
