For idle power draw, a reading was taken after having Windows open on the desktop for 30 minutes. A reading under load was taken with AIDA64’s stress test running.

The BRIX UHD draws very little power at idle, and even under load the power draw is still significantly less than what a full-sized gaming desktop would be pulling from the wall. Considering the good gaming experience at 1080p, this is another impressive result.
