Some of you may already be running a 'Greener PC' without knowing it. I am talking about PSU's that have an Active PFC (Ever seen 99% efficient Active PFC written on the side of a PSU?). Its all great and all in that it uses way less power. Bad news is, most of us here are billed by the kilowatt per hour scale, so even though you are using less power, you are still getting billed the same. Nice huh?

If of course you are one of the Billionares out there, and you have lots of power hungry devices in your own Datacenter and actually buy power based on actual power usage, then those nice Active PFC's will actually save you some cash!
