      Neither hopefully. The former at least is a unit of power, but 40 kW is enough to heat up a whole apartment building.

      In reality a large and older monitor might use a couple hundred watts. A small modern 24" will probably use closer to 50 W (guesstimating), which is still a decent chunk of the power draw of a budget build.
