Way too much, is the simple answer.

I did have a 7604 (non-S) with the same PSUs, 1x SUP720-3BXL, 1x
WS-X6724-SFP and 1x WS-X6708-3CXL was drawing near 2kW.

It's not healthy, please consider how much you'll spend in electricity
vs. something else. For example, the ASR9001 uses a 5th of the power.


Cisco do also have a power calculator, too. It's conservative but not
overly so:
