Hello.  I'm mining with a 7870 right now.  I'm getting about 440 Mhash/s and GPU-Z is telling me it's pulling ~80 watts.
This seems to be too low of a power draw to be accurate.  Or is it?  Any other utilities I should be using?  Aside from a Kill-A-Watt.

maybe gpu shark in detailed mode?

It tell you your current TDP max and the percentage that is being used.
