    Hey everyone,

    I would just like to know how many Watts the laptop (i5, 1060) uses when I'm just browsing the internet or watching videos with the screen on full brightness. On HWMonitor I can only find the power usage of the cpu package which is usually less than 12W at idle with a couple of programs running in the background. Also, even though the laptop comes with a 180W power adapter how much power does it actually consume when gaming?

    Thanks for reading
