The dormitory power supply is rated at 500 watts, and my computer is 550 watts, is there any way to

Let's take a look at the subject question first: the dormitory power supply is rated at 500 watts, and my computer is 550 watts, is there any way to solve it? I wanted to laugh a little when I saw this question, but the next second I was silent, because I had the same idea for this little friend at the beginning, thinking that 500 watts of computer power supply means consuming 500 watts of electricity all the time, and now I feel very stupid and naïve in retrospect.

Here the computer power supply 500 watts refers to the rated output power of this power supply, and the safety limit value of the output power allowed to be provided to the load in a long-term continuous working state, not that the start-up is 500 watts.

If the computer configuration is not very high, then 30 to 50 watts in the standby state is normal, and some are even lower, but if there is a high-performance independent display or high-power processor, then there may be hundreds, and there may be three or four hundred under full load, depending on the configuration.

For the school, on the one hand, for the safety of students' electricity, presumably in the past few years in the school with electric pots to cook hot pot fires abound, on the other hand, it is also to control students to play with computers, so they usually carry out restrictions, such as power limits, when the total power of electricity exceeds the set power, it will trip, so that everyone has no play.

For students, I still recommend studying hard, don't think about playing the computer all day long, generally speaking, if the dormitory is basically not a big problem for you to have a computer, I think you can't always run at full load, I suggest that you take a staggered peak use, that is, when other students play, you try not to play, when other students are resting, you play again, so that you can use it safely without moving the school circuit.

I also don't recommend that you go to the private circuit, or replace the protective device, these are very dangerous, for students your main task is to study, the computer is only used for assistance, so don't make a mistake about your positioning, want to play the computer and wait for you to graduate at home to play how you want, no one will say you, and no one will cut off your electricity, unless you point the card and have no money!

In fact, you can buy a transformer and plug the computer into the transformer.

If the dormitory power supply is rated at 500 watts per person, there will be no big problem with using a 550-watt computer, because this is the rated power of the computer, but the actual output power may be smaller than this, and it will not cause the dormitory to trip.

Look at the school's restriction rules, for example, 1, is to limit 500 watts, 2, limit 500 watts of heating power. For example, our school is intelligently limited in power, 6 people in the dormitory, a computer per person, 6 mobile phones, two ceiling fans, 6 bedside fans, and there is no problem with using them at the same time, but the hair dryer, electric kettle, and dormitory pot, as long as you plug in and turn on the switch, the power will be cut off immediately. . .

You can buy a power converter online, ** are sold on it, you describe your situation with customer service, and then he will recommend you a converter that suits your situation accordingly, and it is recommended to find a store with a high rating.

You think this really needs 550W power consumption, this is just a transformer, even if the principal comes, there is no way, because the real power consumption is pitiful.

My computer has dual 1300 watt power supply, and I can only wait for my sophomore year to go out and rent a house.

No. Desktop computers in dormitories are no problem. The power of the computer is not that great, and it is not a non-compliant electrical appliance.

The advantage of desktop computers is that they are durable, as well as affordable, compared with notebooks, the same premise is better, the heat dissipation is better, and the accessories are relatively cheap to replace if damaged, and the disadvantages are: bulky and large power consumption.

A computer is a machine that uses electronic principles to process data based on a series of instructions. A computer can be divided into two parts: a software system and a hardware system. The first computer, ENIAC, was born on February 14, 1946.

On February 14, 1996, on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the advent of "Eniac", Vice President Al Gore of the United States once again pressed the starting button of this huge electronic computer that had been sleeping for 40 years at a grand ceremony held at the University of Pennsylvania. Gore is speaking to the scientists who participated in the development of Eniake and are still alive today.

I would like to congratulate the pioneers who developed this computer. "The two rows of lights on Enia flickered to 46 with an exact knot, marking its advent in 1946, and then flashing again to 96, marking 50 years since the beginning of the computer age.

The limit of 800W means that the total amount of all electrical appliances does not exceed 800W. It doesn't matter if you buy a 450W power supply, because it means that you will consume as much as you actually use, not that the 450W power supply will consume 450W as soon as you connect it. Therefore, if the desktop computer is not a game model, it is around two or three hundred w, and 3-4 units may trip at the same time.

Gaming PCs are more powerful, while laptops are smaller.

The limited power of the school dormitory is 300W, and the computer power supply is rated at 500W, which can be used in the school dormitory.

550W is the maximum output power of the power supply. Usually, the actual power of a desktop computer is not too large. When the power supply is actually working, the output power is not necessarily equal to the rated power. According to Intel standards, the output power will be greater than the rated power, such as around 10.

It should be noted that in the nominal mode of multi-power, the power rating is based on the Intel standard, which is the most reliable power standard. When purchasing a power supply, it is recommended to use the rated power as a reference and comparison standard. Unfortunately, some power supply companies have trademarks that are not standardized and have virtual standard values.

In fact, this 500W power supply only refers to the maximum output power, not that as long as the chassis is powered on, the 500W power consumption is turned on, the specific power consumption is still based on other hardware in the case, such as: CPU, graphics card, memory, hard disk and other main hardware The actual power consumption can be calculated.

Power rationing in college dormitories generally refers to limiting instantaneous power, and the maximum power of each university dormitory is different, but the minimum is about 300W, as long as you don't play some high-performance and high-power-consuming large-scale games, it's no problem.

Generally, the university dormitory depends on the fuse of your dormitory switch, and the school dormitory is generally within 1000-1500 watts.

Rated 500W may not be used all, if you play large games, plus the power of the monitor, it is still easy to get on 300W, and if there are several computers in the bedroom, it is easy to lose power.

Is it high power to see what it compares with. Nowadays, university dormitories can generally support the use of desktops.

The limited power of the school dormitory is 300W, and the computer power supply is rated at 500W, which can be used in the school dormitory.

550W is the maximum output power of the power supply, the actual power of the general desktop will not be too large, when the power supply actually works, the output power is not necessarily equivalent to the rated power, according to the Intel standard, the output power will be larger than the rated power, such as about 10%. It should be noted that in a variety of power nominal methods, the rated power is formulated in accordance with Intel standards, which is the most reliable standard for power supply. It is a pity that the trademark name of some power supply factories is not standardized, and there is a phenomenon of false standard value.
