power consumption hp z620

[Łata]

Hello
I recently bought a hp z620. out of curiosity, I checked the energy demand. On the desktop without anything 250w. under stress of  cpu100% 370w in wither 3 350w. my graphics are gtx 1060 3gb 3 hard drives. the question is whether it consumes is normal? it seems high. Is it possible to somehow reduce the use of energy?

Hi Michael, welcome to the HP forum.

What CPU(s) do you have installed, how much memory and what is your regional mains voltage (e.g. 110V, 120V, 240V)?

The Z620 has a 800W power supply so you are well within the safe operating limits.

For comparison, when I measured my Z620 power consumprion, (with 2x E5-2670 CPU's and Quadro K4200), it was 200W at idle. I also had a Tesla M2090 installed and ran some render tests;

CPU rendering only (2x E5-2670) = 480W

GPU rendering only (K4200 + M2090) = 500W

Hybrid mode (CPU + GPU rendering) = 650W

This is on a 240V UK mains supply voltage, (actually nearer to 230V).

Thank you for your answer.
In my case, after the death of the system 3 times. I started to think?. I found an invention like pup legacy. It is sitting on the gimaila synchronization and is reloaded on the clean system with the browser. Cleaning google sync. and the new system has solved the problem for now. the consumption dropped to 100-120w without anything on the desktop. Applications someone was digging bitcoins on the graphics card. I wonder where it came from. after buying a pc was the format on old disks nothing was the previous pc had no problems.
