Hi there,

I'm looking for a Windows 7 app that can monitor how much power each of my laptop's components draw. E.g. the watts consumed by the hard drive, lcd, gpu, etc. Can Aida64 do this? If not, does such an app exist?

AIDA64 typically can only monitor the power consumption of the processor and the GPU, but nothing else. It is because most computers have no hardware that could monitor power draw of the rest of the system components (like motherboard, HDD, SSD, LCD, RAM).

Hi Fiery,

So can we expect power consumption hardware monitoring for the Kepler GPUs? Thanks and keep up the hard work!
