Can anyone explain why my power meter says my rig should be taking about 905W but my energy bill says it's taking 1069W ??? What kinda some bullsheet is this.
Anyone have similar experience?
Edit: I was off by 320W on my calculation. So not as bad as I first thought.
Maybe air conditioner for the house? My place is 1850 sqft, so I suppose it could be causing the air conditioner to run more. My card temps average 70-75. Room temp in office is +4 deg F compared to what my AC is set at 77 degrees, during summer.
dont get me started man i live in a townhome for one so im not sure the wiring is 100% correct in this place regarding the garages but sometimes my bill is insane i lost 2 hawaii GPU this summer so prolly 400-550watts gone my bill went up $100 ive calculated my kWh many many times and sometimes its almost 1000 over at the end of the month
My power cost are pretty much what I calculated. Used to pay $40, but now I pay $110 with my first rig.
Looking forward in paying $190 next month as I added another 8-gpu rig.
@greatauror28 - So you have 8-card rig and pay $110/month ?
I have 4-card rig and pay currently $88.84/month. What's you average power at the wall? Mine is 905W.
Live in Pacific NW U.S. It's pretty mild weather. We've had a pretty hot summer though, but I have solar panels, so my electricity use actually goes down in the summer even with AC

My 6-gpu rig is costing me an additional of $70 a month (my monthly bill is normally $40). I’m guessing the 2nd rig would be another $75-$85 a month.
without a proper intake-exhaust and if you're going to keep the rigs inside your house and the AC is set at 77 then it's running 24x7 expect 20-25 units per day additional to what it used to be

I suppose an extra 164W could come from AC.
It's also helpful if you're setting voltage offsets to know if they're working or not.

I will have to play with it again and set lower clocks.
My 2ng rig (8gpu) only uses 1198w, same dcri.
