I had to take my farm down because it was cooking me alive over here. I literally woke up dehydrated this morning because of the four GPUs going full tilt all night long. Weather is starting to get to the typical desert point. I need to see how I can rearrange things so I can continue to fold.

^ I agree Yukikaze...it does get rather toasty at times. I may revise my set-up eventually myself because of this during the summer months.

It is only going to get worse weather wise, and my studio flat is going to have six computers in it next for my home-made Hadoop cluster. Gonna be toasty like heck.

Half an hour before I had to leave for the airport my wife came to me and said that my rig in the guest room (WC'ed one) made some strange sounds (I think it was air being pumped, not water). I didn't dare risking a leak making a rush job so it will be down for 10 days untill I will be back.

If not...see if you can make a washing machine


Nice little pile of hardware you got there, Hertz

You are determined to make me buy more parts, just to stay ahead of you.

No the only thing you'll be able to do with that lot is maybe play a few old DOS games best you just stick it in a box and ship it to me you really don't want all that old stuff lying round making a mess

However, what do you guys think of this? I'm going to need to find 1400 dollars lying around.
