 Could be. It depends on your power supply and the actual devices
 that require power. There are reports about high power usage from
 gaming keyboards/mice (obvious) but also audio and wifi devices.
 Gigabit Ethernet is usally 0.5-1.0W, that's rarely and issue.
 
 Regular PCs, even notebooks usually don't care as there is plenty
 of power compared to an RPI.
