How the hell do I get my pc to use less electricity? I recently moved into my own 1bd apartment, I never realized how much electricity my pc sucks up, when Im on it for most of the day (so most days) it adds an extra $5-7 for the day. This would make sense if I was running it with high load, but most of the time Ive been just online or playing older games.

Will undervolting in MSI afterburner help this? What else can I do to lower costs when it doesnt need all that energy?
