power used by just the fan in a power supply?
I heard at a HPC presentation that the fan in the power supply of a 1U server
"pizza box" can draw 15-20 W! I looked up the specs of some 40 mm case fans used to cool CPU, DIMMs etc and they were in the range 4 W to 13 W. So I suppose 15 W is plausible. On the other hand, the larger case fans in a desktop PC need only 1 to 2 W. So would it be reasonable to assume that in a desktop power supply, the fan is roughly 2 W draw also?
