Can anyone suggest the proper settings for power management for such kind of problem.Just for a simple reason of downloading a lot of electricity is wasted if the PC is kept running for long hours.
Torrent or other downloads possible in sleep mode??

You have to have your computer awake to download.
You can try a downloadmanager that can put your computer to sleep when the download is complete.
I would be very wary of torrent sites, apart from being linked with piracy the files on them can contain anything.
