Dell Halts Sales of High-End Gaming PCs in 6 States Due to Energy Regulations
 
Dell has stopped shipping certain high-end Alienware-brand gaming computers in six states due to power consumption regulations, according to a report.

People looking to buy and ship an Alienware Aurora Ryzen Edition R10 Gaming Desktop to California from Dell's website are met with a message that their orders won't be finalized.

"This product cannot be shipped to the states of California, Colorado, Hawaii, Oregon, Vermont, or Washington due to power consumption regulations adopted by those states. Any orders placed that are bound for those states will be canceled," the message reads.

In a statement to The Register, a representative for Dell expanded on the shipment ban as it relates to California's power consumption requirements.

"Yes, this was driven by the California Energy Commission (CEC) Tier 2 implementation that defined a mandatory energy efficiency standard for PCs—including desktops, AIOs, and mobile gaming systems," the Dell representative told the outlet. "Select configurations of the Alienware Aurora R10 and R12 were the only impacted systems across Dell and Alienware."

California's Energy Commission Title 20 regulations require desktop computers and mobile gaming systems manufactured on or after July 1, 2021, to comply with so-called tier two performance requirements, which limit annual energy consumption to no more than 75 kilowatt-hours per year. This limit applies to those desktop systems with an "expandability score" (ES)—which includes idle power consumption—of between 425 and 690.

Drove up PCH in Huntington beach this after noon. One of the power plants was showing steam. Had to wonder what got them to start it.
I dream of the day a chicken can cross the road with out it's motives being questioned.

There HAS to be exemptions for certain libtards.  A law of nature is libs hate nothing more than being inflicted with their own policies, so I'll be curious how the waivers or exemptions work.
