Hi all, I have recently found myself in a bit of a debate with my dad about how much my pc draws power when it's turned off. I usually keep my pc off but I don't turn off the power supply switch, this results in a few leds on my mother board and one on my gpu staying on. I try to tell my dad that it likely doesn't sraw more than ~10 pence in power per year how far off am with that Guess? If anyone has knowledge on this or can help tell me to figure out how to calculate it that would be a huge help, thanks.
Here are my specs
Cpu- Ryzen 7 3800x Gpu- Asus rtx 2060 Mobo- Asus rog crosshair viii hero Ram- RGB crosair 32gb 3200Mhz Psu- NZXT 750W
If anymore information is needed I'll be happy to reply with more context, information, etc

I leave mine on 24/7 so I can use remote desktop and do work if I'm in the garage or the other side of the house.
