Display Settings and Power Consumption Question!
Hello all :)
I have 2 Samsung Displays in my room. 1 that is connected with my PC is a Samsung LCD Monitor that has native 1440x900 (16:10) resolution and the 2nd one is a new Samsung LED Monitor that has a native 1600x900 (16:9) resolution that is just connected with my PS3 which I hardly use.
Now as I have noticed the power consumption of my LCD is 34watts typical and LED is 14watts typical (on official specs on the website). I have a small factor UPS connected to my PC as we have frequent power outages/black outs in our country and I was wonder if I swap both displays and connect the LED with my PC it will save at approx. 20watts straight according to the official specs also not that the LED comes with a 12v adapter. So will it help?
Also if I swap display will it shuffle my desktop settings as in icons, gadgets etc.? just asking out of curiosity as I have some custom settings on the desktop which I don't want to mess around with for a time being
