When a pc is in sleep mode the pc is off but on at the same time. The data is store in the ram ready to be accessed the moment the true power is turned on without having to wait through the normal boot time. The pc uses the least amount of power this way. My gaming pc has a 650 watt power supply and uses barely 95 watts when its idle lol
