power points

[T1MT1M]

hey, i heard that when you have a lot of power plugs plugged into your power hub (that your computer is connected to) and in the one power point then it can effect performance in your computer. the things that i heard namely effect performance fridge, air con. also dont blame my english cos i pretty much fail at it.

depends on; 1) How many plugs are in one points, a powerboard to a point is fine 2) How many watts your PSU is.

well im at 11 plugs into the 1 powerpoint and i think its gettin a lil much XD
i got 450 watt PSU

11 plugs doesnt sound very safe atall...

I typically have 3 or 4 that are into one power block, and I wouldnt add anything else to that.

I suppose it could have a loss in performance (other things are leaching that power, and with less power the components don't have enough to 'eat off' you could say)

But for safety I would try and split those 11 into smaller groups going into different sockets.

No.

My power hub is rated for 1100 watts. Aslong as the total amount of devices comes within that limit, I cannot see why a computer wouldn't get enough juice - it would simply defeat physics.

WELL. i do defeat physics. didnt you hear? i created a machine that creates more energy than it uses.  :D
