WHAT MAKES AN ENERGY STAR® DESKTOP COMPUTER BETTER?
Around 45% more energy efficient than computers without ENERGY STAR.
They come with a highly efficient power supply.
Are energy efficient in standby, when idling and when turned off.
Come with power management features that ensure they operate at optimal efficiency from the moment they're switched on.
HOT TIPS FOR DESKTOP COMPUTERS
Shut down your computer when it’s not in use.
Turn off your screensaver – they use energy rather than save it.
Turn on your computers power management settings to maximise energy savings.
 
We recommend setting the monitor to turn off after 15 minutes or less of inactivity.
 
Set the computer to enter low-power "sleep mode" after 30 minutes or less of inactivity.
 
The shorter the time, the more energy you'll save.
If you have a choice use a laptop or notebook rather than a desktop: they use around 50% less energy
ENERGY STAR products offer the same great performance and features, but their running costs are lower: good for your wallet and good for the environment.
Desktop Computers
With an ENERGY STAR desktop computer your energy savings start from the day you leave the shop.
Not only are ENERGY STAR qualified desktops around 45% more efficient than a non-qualified computer, they come with ENERGY STAR power management features which ensure they operate at optimal efficiency from the moment you switch them on.
