Time to upgrade to something more modern and power efficient. 156W is way too much.

My MythTV system, with multiple tuners, five hard drives, and a fancy graphics card, doesn't hit that amount even when all of those items are "busy".

Edit: Normal steady state when watching 1080i video is about 85W, and there are far more power-efficient systems available now than when I assembled that one.

Cheers
