Yes it's not the watts but the amps that are getting you. Each "side" of your dorm room (yours then your roomates) are probably on a 15 to 20 amp breaker. You may want to check the amps your pulling at the plug on each rig. I usually limit my rigs to 2 rigs per breaker. I like to leave head room so it doesn't heat up the breaker.
Oh and 1800 watts is about the max on one line/side/breaker of your dorm room at standard amp draw in a perfect world.

There's no way to do two rigs/breaker--that would limit me to a total of four systems. I've moved the Xeon DP/dual-GPU system and the i3/HD7950 to the roommate's breaker, so that should even things up a bit.

Also you need to be mindful of the other things in the room on the lines. That refridge can easily spike 8 to 10 amps when the compressor starts. Also pulling to many amps can heat the breaker and doing that for a prolong period has the possibility of ending very bad for you or others in the building. Also the wire in the wall to the outlets also has a rating on it and you could be overheating it. Think of it like the Christmas light commercial where the people had a crap ton of light plugged into one outlet with all the splitters. Didn't end very well as the overheated the outlet and it sparked and caught fire. I had 4 rigs on a power strip for a week or 2. When I moved my rigs around I looked at the outlet and you can see where it started getting dark where the power strip was pluged into it and the power strips plug had heat damage. That was just 4 rigs, 3 where x4's and one was an x2 and this was before the gpu units. All crunching and all out fitted with low power gpu's ( hd3650's, onboard hd4200, and a 7300 gt).
All I am saying is be careful. It's great you want to have as many crunchers as you do, they just need to be spread out across more breakers. I don't want to come in here one day and find out something not good happend to you man.

Well, there's no easy way to relocate the caseless systems, but I can still relocate two of the i7/GPU systems--and I can get more cases to box up more.

You could time it with spring break since you may have to shut rigs down anyways

I would leave the one with the wonky PSU off if you won't be there, and lower the amount of utilised cores of those systems you keep running (you can set that on the WCG site in your profile settings).

Agreed. set small personal goals and it will keep you hungry for more. Right now my next goal is 15 mil.

So I'm putting together a PC for my brother, just ordered most of the parts last night and should be here next week. He's getting a 7850 and I'm hoping to get it running WCG for a day or 2 while it's here with me, as I get it all ready for him. Hopefully it'll be a little boost for 24-48 hours

![]() They never leave the pc on, so it really wouldn't do any good. What I think I'll do is subtly encourage him to leave it running all the time, and then I could squeeze it in, maybe tell him it's better for the pc to run continually than to keep turning it on and off
