Thanks guys....Dave gets some of the credit here too. Almost one year ago, he invited me over from the WC section, where I used to hang out, to participate in the group. I must say I caught the WCG/DC fever quick....:rofl: Thanks again for that invite Dave. :up:
Now somebody turn me onto a few Nehalems.....:D :up:

Pheh.. Nehalems are still on the horizon and they will be 4 cores when introduced.
The 8 cores will be 2009 Ithink and I may be dead by then!
I ain't waiting!:rofl:

I gained a small lead on your downtime. You clock better than I do so I think you'll be knocking on my door in a few months. (unless I find some Nehalems or break down and quit resisting getting a few skulltrails.....:eek: )
Is the move completed and the new room set up? How's it going for you?
Regards all,
Bob

If I hit the lottery (and of course, I only like to fantasize about F-U money), I wouldn't want to be bothered with administering all these things, I'd just buy you all a quad ! ;)

Thanks for asking Bob! The move is completed. The computer room isnt going well, ran into the heat problem again but I'll work it out. Hopefully I wont need to turn on my portable ac unit. :)
Edit: Still have my whole bed room to work with the future rigs .. lolz.

Best advice I can offer you is those cheap 20" window fans.
Draw almost nothing for electric and if pointed at the machines dowonders for keeping temps down as the air just can't "sit"and build temps.
Seriously, try just one and see how it works..:up:

As to the cheese reference, Littleowl turned me onto some of the best stuff on the planet. Available here. (http://www.heinis.com/) I recently had 15 pounds sent out here. It worked out to about $6.53 a pound shipped. Quite reasonable for what you get....One of the best cheddars on the planet. The other types are very good too. Thanks Littleowl!! Mystic, has L.O. shared any of his pretzels with you?:D
Congrats, I'm sure everyone would love to see pics of the farm.:)
I've posted this in the farm thread before, but here you go. This is a bit out of date now....
http://i149.photobucket.com/albums/s48/123bob_bucket/680i%20install%20pics/farmwithrackspushedback.jpg
I now have the left rack about 2/3 filled and I run a few other rigs in the house. I found that with the power requirements, I had to run new dedicated circuits. The garage was the best place for it. The gear sitting on the cooler is a mass water cooler I detailed in another thread here. Just search "mass water cooler". The spot it's in will become a third rack, probably for Nehalems. I have a hankering to have 16 core machines in that rack.....I have some time to wait....I may have to cure the "DC itch" by filling out the left rack with skulltrails. I don't know yet.
Here's the plan for the full farm.
http://i149.photobucket.com/albums/s48/123bob_bucket/680i%20install%20pics/farmrackdwg-finalplan.jpg
The machines in blue are to be added. This is also a little out of date. I have ten quads running here now. One more than shown here. It kind of creeped in.....:eek: ..funny how that happens....:rofl:

Bob
