I think you'll find the power consumption of modern systems absolutely |

delightful compared to 8yo systems. I was amazed to see that |

server-grade xeon CPUs can be had for ~250USD, with a 77W TDP. 5-6 |

years ago, my Phenom 9650 was a 120TDP part for almost that much when |
| 10 |
not on sale. (Yes, I know Intel and AMD don't calculate their thermal |
| 11 |
data quite the same way, but it seems comperable enough.) |
