Does 2 monitors use more electricity than 1 monitor?

>>724027853
nop, use less

No, the second monitor uses the energy of the first

Does 2 idiots create more idiocy than 1 idiot?

Are you running two PCs at the same time with two monitors or one PC with two monitors?

If you dim the screen on both monitors you may consume less power

It depends on if they're plugged in or not.

>>724028166
mm nice question

You should take both monitors out of their cases and fit the screens together then make a new enclosure with duct tape...it will be more seamless.

>>724027853
If they are both plugged into the same outlet/surge protector, then it uses the same amount. Each monitor uses half as much as a single monitor would.

Does a quarter pounder have more meat than a 1/3 pounder?

>>724029197
This. I can confirm (I'm a qualified electrician with a Masters degree from an Ivy League college).

Are they connected in series or parallel?

>>724029331
Which ivy league? Because if it's brown, everything you say must be taken with a grain of salt licks

>>724027853
Well let's think about this...

Suppose we have an apple. Said Apple has the total volume of 5inches(sq)

Now, hypothetically, let's say we have a cloning machine present and put that apple into the cloning machine to make an exactly replica and now have 2 5in(sq)'d apples.

In this hypothetically situation, OP would still be a faggot.

electricitys direction is defined by movement of posivite charge through the conductor. And since we run thoings on electron, not protons, 2 monitors not only not draw more current, but it actually sends out more of it.
Also, the more the pc runs, the less power it draws, so the more u run 2 screens, the les they draw

>>724027853
+ and + equals -

so 2 monitors cancel out each others energy use - congrats, you don't pay shit!

theres your problem

No, there's your problem
OP still a faggot

>volume of inches(sq)
>In this hypothetically situation

Only if you mirror your screen. If you use split screen obviously not as they split the power

>>724027853
Power consumption follows a square law. Two monitors use four times the power, three monitors use nine times as much power, and so on.

>>724028064
That's a much better question for debating.

>>724030483
lets assume hypothetically, that u r not a massive faggot.
U still r.

TITS OR GTFO.....you know the rules

Given two idiots, each with Idiocy-Level i
If you move them close together, with non-idiots far away, the idiocy is 2*i / distance-between
If you smash them together (tell them to have a duel, by running headlong into each other) their heads will be so close together that the distance becomes zero, and the idiocy level approaches infinity....there could be a Fukushima-Level Meltdown of the space-time fabric


If they are far apart, with many non-idiots between them, their idiocy can decrease to least than one standard idiot. In fact, if in a crowd of btards, the difference in idiocy level may be undetectable.

>>724027853
Nope!
Not many people know this, but if you connect about 80 monitors they can be powered by a potato battery.

more monitors u have less u pay

>>724027853
monitors dont use electricity they only display the light generated by the GPU
