So that is 10-15 cents a day on average... Thank you MattNo5ss.
Mmm, delicious confirmation bias!

I should probably mention that my PC is being water cooled so there's a MCP355 (18W) and 4 San Ace H101 fans (4*6.24W = 24.96W if at full speed) that's not in most PCs.
Put it this way. Running a 1000w light for 18 hours/day added $25/month to my power bill. My computer is the least of my worries A computer, unless folding/crunching 24/7, wont nearly get to 1kw. Most people dont even utilize their computers more than a few hours/day and even then its drawing full wattage. Havent done the math but Id bet leaving my computer on 24/7 for the month and using it, I probably add about $12 - $15/month to my bill.
Regardless......
Ill grab a kill-a-watt as this has peaked my interest.
And the topic of the A/C to cool the computer cant really be figured in all that much honestly. When its 120 outside, AC is going regardless and the computer is the least of my worries
