I unattached my monitors from my PCI-E video card and attached them to the onboard video card. I'm not using the PCI-E card anymore. Is it using any electricity? Should I uninstall it? Will I save money if I remove it from my system?

Hi All
When a new electricity meter is fitted on behalf of British Gas, can the new meter be set with the reading of the old one? Or would it always start off at zero?
