Ever since I built my first computer in 2002 till this day I've always hear people say "oh now that you built this or that computer you are going to have a higher electric bill". How is that when you plug it into a 110 outlet and you power supply coverts it from 110 to 12 v. All computers run on 12V. Am I missing something hear or are they?I've been able to in the past overclock the hect out of my computers and even then would not raise my electric bill. Just the temps, and looked for different ways to get the processor and video cards to lower the temps. Can someone clarify this. Maybe they think because you plug it into a 110 outlet that they run on 110? If that were true why would be the use of our 12v power supply? Simple question.
