75w is nuts actually. I measured my _desktop_ setup about 10 years ago including two monitors and idle was around 35w. It also doesn't make sense to include idle of all peripherals since you would be using them for chatgpt as well.

Why do you think idle is the relevant figure here? They will be actively using the computer and its peripherals.
