3.8.1 Motherboard Power Consumption
The motherboard power consumption is highly dependent on the processors, memory and devices
attached and also on the software that is running and the power state that the board is in. The
figures given in the table below are designed to give the user a guide to the power requirements
that should be expected under selected conditions. They should not be interpreted as maximum
requirements.
The figures are based on measurements of a real system configured in the following manner.
Processor Intel Pentium III at 866MHz
Memory "28MB
Drives IBM DTLA 30.7GB, CD-ROM, floppy drive (all powered
independently)
Video On-board

* These results are from a suite of stress tests designed to maximize the power dissipation of the
above configuration. Each figure is the worst case seen from any test – they are not maximums that
can be measured together.
