How To Tell Power Draw Reddit

Noob question here about ability usage.

And then I got a 1080 ti and a 970 running on my rig with a 1000w platinum psu would I have to worry about being charged extra for my power bill if I live in an apartment? The scripts are saying that the 970 is taking upwardly similar 186w and the 1080 ti is taking up 280w which is far below the amount of wattage my psu pushes thanks for answering!

The PSU volition only draw wall ability upwards to the rated wattage, more or less (its a bit more complicated that that) if the components feeding off it need information technology - Your PSU is not drawing 1000W all the time it is turned on.
