My set idles at 335W, i have used the power meter but the router and vnet modem which are permanently on, my speakers, monitors, allusb stuff that needs power as well as the computer all go through that plug.
I figure it's on 6 hours a day, 5 days a week, and 15 hours a day at weekends, so 60 hours or so of lets say 333 Watts, 20kWh@15p per week, £3 a week.
My wife has a similar computer setup, which hasn't as many peripherals but is on longer than mine, so we easily spend £300 a year on computing electricity alone I'd say.
