The REPO man inspection!

Jstn7477 · Sep 5, 2012, 04:10 AM

The fire department comes by every 6 months and does an inspection of commercial facilities (in the county our facility is located in). Basically, firefighters can be completely dense when it comes to electrical systems, and they want to know why you use power strips and every time they see one or a bunch of equipment plugged into a single outlet using some sort of wall tap, they are like "OMG CIRCUIT OVERLOAD GTFO" and it's a pain in the ass having them nitpick all your wiring and claiming running X number of devices in one area is unsafe and they will spontaneously explode instantly.

TL;DR, they don't even have certifications to inspect facilities, but they walk through twice a year with a checklist to be a general pain. Our goal is to get them in and out with as few questions as possible so they don't whip out the pseudo-electrician/physicist BS and want to visit us even more to correct "flaws" with how we carry things out. I hate when people who know nothing about what you are doing meander in and have to know every single thing you are doing and try to say you're stuff is wrong because it doesn't align with their opinions, protocols or whatever.

So, that is why 4 of my most ghetto looking rigs (which aren't great producers anyway) are offline. The rest are still going with as few wires as possible to prevent any "issues" that might come up.

ChaoticAtmosphere · Sep 5, 2012, 04:16 AM

That makes sense.

Too bad they unknowingly make you do all that just to get them out of there. Were they even taught power strips have a breaker built into them and will pop before the outlet melts? Maybe you should tell them that.

I keep having net issues. I am extremely fed up with Comcast, it's probably the area, but still.

Norton · Sep 5, 2012, 03:24 PM

My ppd is down a bit this am- need to check to make sure everything is reporting ok when I get back home later today

ThE_MaD_ShOt · Sep 5, 2012, 08:05 PM

Nine is also down today for some weird reason.

[Ion] · Sep 5, 2012, 08:07 PM

In a similar vein, my PentDC lost internet access again...so I'll have to look at that tonight. I'm thinking it might be time to pick up another Ethernet cord and hard-wire it.

ThE_MaD_ShOt · Sep 5, 2012, 10:44 PM

Well I had one system locked tight when I got home. The fan went out on the vid card about a week or so ago. I strapped a 80mm fan to it and off it went. Well that fan while being new went out.

Friggin card is just a jinx to fans now. And that card does not like heat at all. It will lock the system in no time. I replace the fan again and it is running right at 42c. So number are going to be down tonight.

[Ion] · Sep 5, 2012, 11:02 PM

What card is this? I've found that sufficiently low-power cards (Geforce 8400GS or similar) can actually run fine even if the fan locks up

I have a spare network cord or two and possibly a new wireless USB adapter that I may be able to get out to you

Oh, I have a couple Ethernet cords at my home in Chapel Hill, and I'm sure I could get my parents to send one. I may even be able to scrounge up a spare from my roommate...he's using my WiFi, so his is going unused. The computer actually has a perfectly functional WiFi adapter in it, but as part of the network here at NCSU, the computer has to be re-authenticated each time it connects. Thanks though

I'm having a similar issue with the PC at the remote site.... times out after 10-15 minutes of non-activity on the free wifi. I have to get it online when I get to the site to get it to upload/download wu's

I just sent you a pm regarding the fan deal. And all I got to say is XFX does have great customer support.

[Ion] · Sep 5, 2012, 11:48 PM

Hard-wired the PentDC to the router, should solve that issue

brandonwh64 · Sep 6, 2012, 12:12 AM

well came home to find the I3 locked again. Took 2 days to freeze but BSOD again so I raised voltage to 1.23V hope this fixes this issue. I ran this thing for weeks and weeks and it just now starts this! I think its degrading.

Jstn7477 · Sep 6, 2012, 12:36 AM

I'm working on my i7-870 system again and trying to find the right voltages/settings for it. Currently at 170*22 (3750), 1.35v core (1.29v under load) and 1.25v VTT with DDR3-1700. BSODs with 1.336v vcore at that frequency. Unsure if I can get VTT lower or not, but I'm pretty sure there is a massive wall right above 170MHz that I can't overcome even with 1.4v vcore and 1.3v VTT. 3.75GHz isn't too bad.

Also, my delidded s939 Opteron is golden and does 3GHz on stock volts and under 50c! 300MHz HTT with 2GB OCZ Platinum DDR400 @ 500MHz 3-3-3-8 iirc.

Exercise-induced asthma (EIA) is airway narrowing brought on by vigorous exercise. The symptoms of EIA — wheeze, breathlessness, cough or chest tightness — may start during exercise but usually worsen in the 5–10 minutes after you stop exercising. During exercise, your lung function is usually only slightly diminished; however, this can impact on your performance if you play competitive sport.

Some people with exercise-induced asthma do not have asthma symptoms unless they exercise. Other people have asthma symptoms in many situations, including exercise.

Exactly how EIA happens is not clear. However, it is thought that EIA may involve loss of heat and water from the airways, as they try to warm and moisten large volumes of incoming cool dry air. The cooler and drier the air you breathe in, the more severe the symptoms of EIA. Rewarming of the airways after exercise is also put forward as a cause of EIA.

If you train intensely and frequently, especially in cold dry air, your risk of developing EIA increases. Other factors that make EIA more likely are allergens (substances that can trigger an allergic reaction, such as pollen) or irritants in the environment. Swimming can be a mixed blessing — the warm humid air reduces the risk of EIA, but some athletes react to the chlorine in indoor pools.

Are we crunching that?

Jstn7477 · Sep 6, 2012, 12:54 AM

I'm placing bets that it is a spam bot. They are getting smarter, unfortunately.

ThE_MaD_ShOt · Sep 6, 2012, 01:03 AM

Well I got to say that is one smart bot as it joined 2 months ago and has been casing our joint.

Well it looks like my FX-6200 rig got screwed up somehow- almost nothing reported from it

Will need to go to my buddy's office tomorrow at some point to see what happened. Hopefully, it's just an internet connection issue and it's still crunching away.

On a second note- plugged in another HDD on the 965BE rig and reinstalled Windows 8 and got it back crunching again. Windows 8 is pretty neat- from empty HDD to crunching in about 20 minutes

Shame about the FX...hopefully it's still crunching, even if offline

Glad to hear about the 965BE, that's a potent setup

I've found that sufficiently low-power cards (Geforce 8400GS or similar) can actually run fine even if the fan locks up __________________ Ion's WCG Essentials Thread Crunching (64 Threads + 896 CUDA Cores + 6272 Shaders): i3-2100@ 3.1 + HD7850 -- Atom D510 @ 1.66 -- C2D-M T9600 @ 2.8 -- i7-3612QM @ 2.8 -- i7-860 @ 2.9 + HD7950 -- i7-2700k @ 4.4 + 2xGTX470 -- PentDC-M T4200 @ 2.0 -- i7-920 @ 3.83 + 3xHD7770 -- DP Xeon E5420 @ 2.5 + HD7930 -- E1600 @ 2.4

Took 2 days to freeze but BSOD again so I raised voltage to 1.23V hope this fixes this issue. I ran this thing for weeks and weeks and it just now starts this!

Jstn7477 Join Date: Aug 2009 Location: Sarasota, Florida, USA Posts: 3,143 (2.30/day) Thanks: 389 Thanked 1,194 Times in 806 Posts System Specs	I'm working on my i7-870 system again and trying to find the right voltages/settings for it. Currently at 17022 (3750), 1.35v core (1.29v under load) and 1.25v VTT with DDR3-1700. BSODs with 1.336v vcore at that frequency. Unsure if I can get VTT lower or not, but I'm pretty sure there is a massive wall right above 170MHz that I can't overcome even with 1.4v vcore and 1.3v VTT. 3.75GHz isn't too bad. Also, my delidded s939 Opteron is golden and does 3GHz on stock volts and under 50c! 300MHz HTT with 2GB OCZ Platinum DDR400 @ 500MHz 3-3-3-8 iirc. __________________ Intel Crunchers (27 threads):* 2x 3770K 4.3G (14t), 2600K 4G (7t), X3210 (3t), P-M 735A, P4 HT 3G AMD Crunchers (11 cores):1100T 3.6G (3t), 1045T 3.4G (2t), X3 8550 2.5G, X2 4200+, T64 ML-37 AMD Folders (6272 GCN cores): 2x 7950 1125/1475, 7970 1150/1650, 7770 1100/1200 NV Folders (2336 GF10x + 1344 GK104 cores):GTX 470 & 465 720/1715, 4x 460 768MB 825/2000, GTS 450, 660Ti 1228/6000 HEATWARE

Hopefully, it's just an internet connection issue and it's still crunching away. On a second note- plugged in another HDD on the 965BE rig and reinstalled Windows 8 and got it back crunching again. Windows 8 is pretty neat- from empty HDD to crunching in about 20 minutes __________________ *Why sit on the Bench* when you can get in the game and Crunch!!!- World Community Grid (FTW) CPU crunchers- FX-8350(4.4)/FX-8150(4.0)/FX-6200(4.0)/ PII 1045T/PII 1045T/i7-920/Xeon (6c/12t)....(44 cores/54 threads) GPU crunchers- no WCG GPU work available Folding@Home- 2x GTX 580's WCG-TPU Team thread- crunch for our Team/see what we do...**
