But isn't there one final update during the AM? I know WCG sometimes has updates at 3am or so Eastern Time that still count towards the day.

There is one more update in CST that will count.

I'm posting this here and at the WCG team thread as well, just need some advise.

I don't know how I am going to do it, but I can't stop crunching or folding. I have a serious issue with heat in my room. Got both rigs crunching and folding, all in my signature. Downstairs it is 66ºF right now, up stairs in my room it is 81ºF. Thing is thermostat is downstairs and it cools it quick, however, up stairs it can be burning! Any ideas on how to limit this heat?

NOTE: Both CPU's are running default clocks and undervolted, cards are running default clocks/voltages.

Ha! Never give up hope!

Why hit 25k when you can hit 26k?

Just add a window A/C or one of the ones that vent into the celling. Problem solved

Year before last I had to run a window Ac in the middle of dead winter Something about dual 2950Xt/water cooled, and a phase running in the room kept it always super hot...even if it was below freezeing outside for some odd reason

 

[DaMulta]

Eaither that or pump your water cooling outside....

 

[Athlon2K15]

when is the real gpu3 client coming out,or we gonna be in beta for years?

 

[theonedub]

Exhaust fan / intake fan in the window. Not a box fan, but a window fan with electronically controlled reversible airflow.

Can't put a window unit, not allowed here.

Got a link to any of those?

 

[DaMulta]

What about a room unit? They have AC units that can roll around the room. They work really well.

Yep you can do it CP....

It's now ROLLIN in PPD!!!!!

Just something like this: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000065DKJ/?tag=tec06d-20

Probably set it as an exhaust to pull the hot air out of your room. If you could crack the door open in the room it would be great and would pull cooler air from the rest of your house into your room more efficiently.

I rarely ever use an Air Conditioner so I've picked up some knowledge on good fan use

What about a room unit? They have AC units that can roll around the room. They work really well.

They are super expensive, about $300-$500 on average. From my own personal experience they are not the best performers, plus the dryer exhaust hose you need to use with them look extremely tacky

 

[DaMulta]

The ones I have seen were in server closet rooms, and they worked really really well. I almost bought a used one last year.

Depends on how you wire the exhaust

 

[theonedub]

The performance is going to depend on how large the room was and how many BTUs the AC is rated for. For servers that require mission critical reliability, my guess is that they went overkill on the BTU rating for the room size which keeps things frosty, but is super expensive in both entry and run cost.

Any idea what the units were rated for and approx how big the room was?

 

[DaMulta]

It was about 10feet by 8 feet. Had about 8 machines running in the room, and it kept it really cold in there.

I think it was a 15,000 btu a/c unit.

 

[theonedub]

Oh yeah 15k for that small a room even with 8 machines will be kept icy, def went for overkill there

Although maybe expensive, got a link to one?

Yep you can do it CP....

Already done Going for it again today

That would work well I would say but thing is I can't have nothing on the windows really. This is rented and it belongs to the goverment so they are going to be bitches about it, sucks but what can I do. I might just give that a shot though.

 

[theonedub]

Ohh, well its not going to protrude from the window like a window AC, and since its just a fan there is no water that would drip and cause mildew, mold, or damage like water coming from an AC either. I don't see what the problem would be, but hey they are the boss (I would try it anyway )

True, a lot more thinner yet visible. I might just try it though, I'll keep you'll posted. See right now I'm sitting in front of the a/c duct and it's on so I'm good. But when it shuts off you just get this heatwave that slaps you across the face.

cold season has started 2nd week of sept. GX2's online PS3 back online. other systems to follow.

I had to have my AC unit replaced in the spring the drip pan had rusted out and leaked water all over the coils causing lint to build up on them and clogged the whole thing up.. It was almost a 25 year old unit and Obama gave me a tax break for doing it...I also turned my garage into a Office/computer room for me, the ac is on the other end of the house and by the time it gets to the office it doesn't blow much cold air... I have two windows in the office and I just went to Wally world and bought a window unit and put it in the window keeps the whole office about 68F now, it runs for about 10 to 15mins then shuts itself off for about 30mins... Best $100.00 dollars I've spent..My office/computer room has 6 computers in it running 24/7 and all of them folding 24/7....My house is like 25years old and I bought it new back then, the kids have all grown up and moved out so it's just my wife and me and pets (cat & dog). We keep 2 bedrooms ready for the kids or other family that come for visits... My elect. bill stays around $200.00 for most of the summer then drops in the winter because I use natural gas to heat with...Just my scenario at my house...
I hope somehow you can get your cards cooled off more... Heck put a floor fan blowing on them full blast it can't hurt none but might be noisy as heck:shadedshu.....
If you can get to 25,000 PPD CP you will get the crazy folder badge.

I meant is in what kinda cat is it, tabby is a type of cat. Looks like it is.

...and the names, no comment

my mistake i'm not really up on cats much. when i go looking for cats i don't worry about the type. I pick them based on looks and "personality" so to say. kinda how i pick my girls

i wonder if anyone calls their cat gigabyte, EVGA and asus

would be really funny to hear them call for the cat haha

My bunny is named after my mobo (it's name is Rampage Gene *insert my last name*)
maybe i will name my next dog Gigabyte

now OT
I haven't folded much because temps have been too much for me to handle at night and after i get home from working out i don't want to walk into a 90+f room
