Modern hardware is incredibly power hungry - to squeeze marginal gains out of hardware they’re being pushed to the power hungry side of operation. On the high end a 5090 and an intel 285 / 265 is 825 watt TDP nominal before other hardware.
On that note, you can significantly reduce power consumption by undervolting your hardware. Everything is overclocked out of the box.
1500W? A PC while gaming should be closer to 500W, right? My GPU and CPU together don’t pull 300W and I can play 2k 100Hz

I wouldn’t expect someone living in a trailer to own a 5090.
Yeah, my Ryzen 5700X is undervolted, I was thinking about undervolting my RX6800
