Oh yeah

helll yeah!!!!

congrats all stoners!!!!

Well done guys.
I've had to slow it down a bit due to excessively high power bills, apparently i'm using over 200% more than a comparable household, and that's after a near 30% reduction from my last bill.
I'm guessing running two airconditioners 24/7 didn't help.

Allow me to ask you, what are you running for Crunching?

 

[Caring1]

A Xeon 3070 dual core, an i5 3570k stock and an AMD E350 Laptop.
All three were running 24/7 until now apart from restarts due to updates and minor maintenance.

How many Watts use every single Machine?

How many Watts use every single Machine?

I really have no idea how much they use.
I assume because they have fairly low wattage CPU's they wouldn't use much power, especially after I stopped using the GPU also.

You freak me out, today I have tested my last build, a 2P system and it's using 200W plus I have 2 more Xeons build, one use 80w and the second one 75w, all 3 builds together use 355W/360W, i dont get electricity bills every month i pay 80€ per month (80€ ×12 = 960€ per year) and if I use more than that I have to pay the rest, i am wondering how much would i have to pay for 360W.

 

[Caring1]

My bills are charged at a rate of $0.25 per KWh, so it adds up quite quickly.

Mine €0.26,22

I've seen some altcoin miners install 220v in their homes for the increase in efficiency. Since everything is driven by profits, I assume it's worth doing if you start pulling serious power. Kind of wonder what it would cost and if power rates would change. I suppose a kWh is a kWh no matter what voltage.
(80 Plus rating wants up to 2% better efficiency for the same badge. Dunno what average efficiency jumps are for real PSUs though.)

I would hesitate to do something like that - not because of the cost but because I'd almost certainly pop up on the utility's radar as being a potential grow house. In fact, I'm a little surprised that hasn't already happened.

You probably already have but then the police use infrared imaging via driveby or air to determine if you're growing or cooking

I've actually wondered about that. Since I have aluminum siding over wood siding and a double roof, I wonder how much information they could really get. I imagine that the only way they could get any information at all would be through the windows but IDK.

But some peoples 290x farms probably did raise some eyebrows.

Good point. I keep bitching about WCG not having a GPU project but at the same time, if they ever do have one again, I'll probably look back fondly at my current electric bills.

What a stone on such a day!

[[Ion]]

Awesome, 110M is quite amazing

 

[manofthem]

Awesome, 110M is quite amazing

Yes. Yes indeed, pretty outstanding! Great work on keeping up in incredible output!

 

[Norton]

Awesome job to [Ion] and our other stoners too!

 

[[Ion]]

Yes. Yes indeed, pretty outstanding! Great work on keeping up in incredible output!

Tragically, 110M will be the last one for a while....only a little over a month until school gets out for the semester, and then it's back to low output until fall. But we do what we can, and I'm very happy with the results.

Interesting coincidence from the F@H side:

T-Bob passes 110,000,000 Congratulations!!!
