:up: Good day guys!
Another solid day of crunching, nice work everyone! :up:
However, my Q6600@4,1 eats 250W ALONE (without mobo/mem/etc) :shocked: while my S939 X2 3800+@2,7Ghz draws around 170W BOINC (whole rig).Quote:

Actually, that would be a really interesting thing to add to the benchmark charts ... painful to gather the data, but interesting.
I did, at some point,, quickly forgot about it mainly because certain phase rigs use way too much power :shakes:
Really, it'd be better to compile that kind of data on rigs running at stock speeds as well as overclocked to varying degrees. Again, big project.
That would be interesting - for the Euroland guys especially since they pay at least 2-3 times what the US does for juice. I :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana: about $0.19/kw-hr but that's pretty good from a worldwide perspective. :)Quote:

Don't know about cheap but the other one is fitting. :DQuote:

I'm an industrial electrician by trade with electronics and instrumentation experience (among other things). If I want it, I can build it ... if I can get time and enthusiasm. :shakes:
plus ... I'm not math-challenged enough to need a meter to work out watts when I already know voltage, current and power factor. :p:
