I cannot believe how insignificantly low my power draw is when seeding about 200 Linux ISOs on my Ryzen 5700G system with four 4TB SSDs.

Some time ago, I made a post in which I wanted your input on how I could decrease power^[https://programming.dev/post/47150919]. Well, this is the result of turning on all those various energy saving options in the BIOS and some undervolting (all cores set to -30).

Oh, and I also took out all but two chassi fans: the exhaust fan behind the CPU and one above the CPU.

I did try replacing the Gold certified PSU with a Platinum one, but the Platinum one ended up in my gaming rig because the Gold one had more SATA "outlets" and I'm going to need them soon, as the combined Linux ISOs now take up 14TB (and I'm going to continue using SSDs until shit hits the remaining fans).

Thank you people!
