I see, thanks. I figured the Valve index with it's high refresh rates of 120 and 144 that it would eat up a lot of power just like the 32" 144 Hz gaming screen does. I have an app from my power provider that shows BY HOUR energy usage and it doubles / triples when I power up my PC. Just powering it up does that even if all I'm doing is browsing e-mails. 

Well not quite, basically turn on: DOUBLE
Play a game: TRIPLE
And this is by hour. I took a vacation last week and I checked my app daily to see what the power consumption was when I wasn't even at home and it was 1.8 - 2 kWh. Now at home when I play like 6 hours of games it goes up to 5-6 kWh. I am getting my fridge replaced soon with a better one but I have this feeling my PC isn't even the best power savings mode it could be, hence why I made the post here if you guys have hints on how to turn it into power saving mode. The 144 Hz screen makes a lot of noise and it heats up. I know it eats a ton. I believe if I sold that I could probably reduce it by a lot but there's something magical in playing FPS games with 120 FPS and see the smoothness of it. Not to mention older PC games. So smooth...
