I don't know when, but I am going to probe it when I get moved in to some new diggs. I also want to know how much power it uses as electricity costs rise. There is a nameplate on the back of the CPU but I am not sure if that is the whole system - I think it should be though.
If you look on the back of the CPU there is information on there. Could you look and report back?
