Cool! I'd offer you an HDD, but for the price of shipping it to London you could probably find one cheaper locally

KieX · May 3, 2010, 08:48 PM

Cheers buddy! I know I got some old IDE drives that are fine for the job. The problem is knowing which pile of mess to look under.

I should find it soon though I'm planning to do a proper tidy up of my room. Heat and dust is becoming an issue with all the rigs I intend to have running WCG and F@H, so I need some clean air/ventilation.

Temperatures are an issue, it's getting up to 90F frequently here, so the computer is having to spend a large part of the time turned off to keep it from getting any hotter. And that's just with one rig

Ion, if you were closer, I'd give you the extra AC I have sitting in the garage.

Well, we have central AC, but we don't run it much unless it gets to over 90F to save electricity...which makes some sense I guess, but it's still damn hot. We'll probably start using the AC more in late May, in which case I'll probably be able to run the computer a bit more as well (and the H50, due to arrive Wednesday, should at least keep the X4 955 cooler, if not the room)
Thanks though

it's starting to get ridiculously hot and humid here in Miami. Thank god when I get home it's already a bit cooler. My room with both rigs crunching and the heat outside, holy crap

Something is something, but might cost more to have it running that what it'll produce. Might not be worth it.

MohawkAngel · May 4, 2010, 04:49 AM

Every calculation to help fight cancer and poverty is a good calculation big or not.
Anyway a 667mhz is not really high in wattage and i wont put any fan on it. i just have a big ass aluminium cooler to put on it. Fanless there will be no power consumption except for psu but even for it the psu will run so cool because of low cpu wattage ill just remove the psu fan.
I got it for free so will curnch until it blows for almost free.

That's why I said something is something.

MohawkAngel · May 4, 2010, 05:59 AM

btw can you find me the wattage of this intel pentium 3 667mhz ? ive been searching but not found it yet.

hat · May 4, 2010, 06:35 AM

Look for the stepping (it should look something like SL2HA—the code for my really old P2). Type it onto google and you should get the specs page from Intel.

MohawkAngel · May 4, 2010, 08:48 AM

Ive just mounted it already installed everything and put the paste and heatsink...i wont take it off again lol i just wanted an approximate

hat · May 4, 2010, 09:10 AM

Hmm... post a pic of cpu-z open and I'll see if I can find the code I mentioned earlier

MohawkAngel · May 4, 2010, 11:37 AM

nevermind this computer is stored for now. subjext closed ill find somewhere else. theres already setted wattage whatever the code if you cant tell it like that just forget it i got other stuff to do than to spend my time looking for codes lol

its around 18 w

Thank for a short and sweet answer. Thats the problem here most of the times... You ask for the maximum wattage of something and those guys absolutely need the serial numbers. If the class of cpu is 85 to 120 watts for example then no need to seek serial numbers to find that the maximum wattage is 120 watts. Dang!!!

(FIH) The Don · May 4, 2010, 11:55 AM

np

i hate too complicated answers, dont get half of it

i just looked at intels processor finder and all the 667 pIII were at 17.5w

MohawkAngel · May 4, 2010, 12:02 PM

nice thx

so i could barely use an external laptop 60w psu for my mobo lol

You can try looking here, it's a interesting page anyways

Ugh, the humidity is just as bad as the heat. It wasn't so hot yesterday, so I had things on 24/7, but today is promising to be extremely hot, (it's already almost 85f and not even 9 am), so things are likely going to get shut off at some point

aye its getting hot, im down on one cruncher on day time

KieX · May 4, 2010, 07:33 PM

Don't have a thermometer, don't even think I want to know how hot my room is. When it's freezing outside I have all my windows open and I still find it too hot to sleep with any bed sheets or duvet. Biggest problem I have is no airflow through my room, so heat just keeps building up and dust gets regurgitated by the crunchers.

Anyone know what safe temps for i7 920 are? I'm crunching away at stock speeds atm and it hovers around 60C (peaks at 65C).

60 to 65 are safe (have been for me at times). I would try to stay under 70 C though

Hmm.. sounds like I may not have much OC headroom

Certainly not as summer approaches.

Is there a big heat difference when you overclock on stock volts? My Vid is 1.2V exactly
