Did you read the topic? :-/

The TC should update this topic... i mean PS3 is down to using 135watts. Im sure 360 uses less power as well due to hardware revisions...

The Wii's data is probably the only one thats correct and thats becuase Nintendo havent needed to cut manufacturing costs yet / havent been able to... (as far as we know)

For the umpteenth time:

The PS3 DOES NOT use 380 Watts. It never did.
(it was first measured around 200 watts)

It has a power supply rated for 380 watts. This, however, tells nothing about the energy it actually uses. It's a common engineering practise to design powersupplies to be a lot bigger than what is needed because a) you could get an unpredicted peak and b) powersupplies tend to lose capacity over time.

This is easilly verified, the Xbox 360 uses something like 160 watts but it's powersupply is rated for over 250 (IIRC). Likewise, if you check the Wii you'll find that it's powersupply rated above what it actually uses as well.

Think of it like an engine in a car - just because it can deliver 400 HP that doesn't mean it actually delivers 400 HP when you're idling!

Q: is this going to influence how much i use my consoles
A: no
