  "text": "To qualify as Energy Star, computer monitor models must not exceed the following maximum active power consumption equation: If X < 1 megapixel, then Y = 23; if X ≥ 1 megapixel, then Y = 28X. Y is expressed in watts and rounded up to the nearest whole number and X is the number of megapixels in decimal form (e.g. 1 920 000 pixels = 1,92 megapixels). For example, the maximum power consumption for a computer monitor with 1 024 × 768 resolution (or ,78 megapixels) would be Y = 23 watts and for a computer monitor with 1 600 × 1 200 resolution would be 28(1,92) = 53,76 or 54 watts when rounded up.\nTABLE 1\nSample Tier 1 On Mode maximum power levels\nResolution\nTotal pixels\nMaximum power use for Tier 1\n640 × 480\n307 200\n42 watts\n800 × 600\n480 000\n49 watts\n1 024 × 768\n786 432\n60 watts\n1 280 × 768\n983 040\n68 watts\n1 280 × 1 024\n1 310 720\n80 watts\n1 600 × 1 024\n1 638 400\n93 watts\n1 600 × 1 200\n1 920 000\n103 watts\n1 920 × 1 200\n2 304 000\n118 watts\n1 800 × 1 440\n2 592 000\n129 watts\n2 048 × 1 440\n2 949 120\n143 watts\n2 048 × 1 536\n3 145 728\n150 watts\nTo qualify a computer monitor as Energy Star, it must be tested according to the protocol outlined in Section 4, Test methodology.",
