Good for you. Good for the environment. The EcoSystem just makes sense. The EcoSystem Duo is the next-generation of energy efficient PC from Jinglehorse. This second generation EcoSystem is designed to utilize the tremendous power and efficiency of the Intel Core Duo processor to create a fast, reliable, and environmentally friendly dual-core system capable of satisfying the needs of even the most demanding computer user. Whereas high-end systems can use more than 350 watts during heavy use, the EcoSystem Duo requires only 44 watts for normal use and just 75 watts at full throttle. The Ecosystem Duo has the potential to save its owner hundreds of watts of energy use at all times.
Simply by doing more with less the EcoSystem Duo’s elegant efficiency brings tremendous benefits to its user and the environment:
It Pays for Itself
The typical PC with a 5-year life span will cost its owner approximately $438 for every 100 watts of power it consumes. A high-end system using 350 watts of power will cost its owner approximately $1533 in electrical bills over its lifetime. The EcoSystem Duo can reduce that cost by 75% or more and pay for itself in savings in the mean time.
5-year cost savings for 100 watts saved = .1KW x $0.10/KWH x 24 x 365 x 5 = $438
The EcoSystem saves approximately 300 Watts:
3 x $438 = $1,314 in energy savings. It pays for itself, and then some.
Increased Reliability
The life of an electronic device is directly related to its operating temperature. Each 10°C (18°F) temperature rise reduces component life by 50%. The internal temperature of a computer system is directly influenced by its power consumption due to the fact that a significant portion of energy consumed is released back into the system as heat. By using significantly less energy, the EcoSystem Duo discharges far less heat into the system and enjoys an extremely cool operating temperature. This lower internal operating temperature in turn affords a tremendous increase in life-long system stability and reliability. As a result, the EcoSystem Duo is one of the most stable, reliable PC’s on the market.
Low Noise Level
Minimal heat means minimal noise. Most ordinary systems require several noisy fans to cool down and stabilize their internal operating temperature. The EcoSystem Duo’s unique design achieves an optimal balance of performance, energy efficiency, and system stability without those whirring fans and their noise pollution. Every EcoSystem Duo operates with only the faintest occasional whisper, affording its user a quiet and peaceful experience during even the most demanding applications.
Compact Design
The EcoSystem Duo’s small form-factor (SFF) case offers its owner the convenience of easily tucking it inconspicuously under any desk or workstation. Quiet and compact, the EcoSystem will impress without distraction.
