psu watts help

my psu uses 600 watts and has a 86 percent efficienty so how much does my computer use

i did that it is 450 watts but i mean when the psu 600 watts it 86 efficient what does it use on the electricity like the psu is 600 watts model but it uses 86 percent efficient so how much watts does it use on my computer

so how much does much does the computer use in watts as the typical modern computer uses 50-250 watts

The power use is determined by the components in the PC, not the PSU. As you haven't shared a list of components with us, no one can estimate that for you.

Power supply calculators exist to allow you to specify a PSU that's adequate to supply the maximum possible load of the components. If the PSU is rated much higher than that, the power consumption should be about the same, excepting differences in efficiency.

Your load at idle may be much less than the maximum, especially if you have a high-powered (300W) graphics card.

There are meters that can be placed between the PC and the mains that will tell you how much power you're using. They are not inexpensive, though: roughly $100US.

i used the caclulator it said 450 watts that require a 450 w psu but i have a 600 psu with 86 percent efficentcy so what will my computer be using nobody is anwering my question i am not on about the psu i know with the 86 percent effiienty it will make my watts less but what will it bring it down to i got my computer in 2007 packard bell

150 watts to 200 watts idle that is wrong sure it says that typical computers use 50-250 max it has 86 percent efficienty does it not only use 14 percent of 600 watts how could it use 150 to 200 watts idle
