Is there any software that can be used to monitor wattage consumption when Mining instead of using wall sockets with meter reading on them? I can't afford one now and I'm looking for a software solution, thanks
Software alone isnt accurate...espeically for AMD usage. You do need a meter of some type.
These are $6 each with shipping but require you log the data:

And for both power logging and remote power cycle even scheduling..you can use these 3 for $20:

Thats the cheapest solutions i know of. Problem with software like miner power measurement...it doesnt include actual power used. AMD cards dont report anything but power used by main chip...no riser power. Nvidia is better but still not all the power or even system power.
Good luck hope you find a solution that works for you.
