@philipma1957 the "idle" is that high because I use the two cpu's for mining as well

Those are quite heavy cpu's and they consume a lot but I'm not talking here about the CPU. Its all about the GPU's

Idle time is just to show how much power two 480's are using.
So basicly you can say a RX480 Nitro+ 8GB consumes around 156,5w and generates a hashrate of 845-850 h/s for monero. (603w - 290 / 2). This is not bad but you cannot compare this to your panda miner! Total other GPU cards (MXM!). Ah and by the way, a panda miner is using around 390-400w in idle modues
