Phewwwwwwwwww ... look like my training with wifey paid off .. lolz ... very nice crunching Bob. I dont think I'll be able to keep up with Bob when he fills up his rack. If my breaker can hold up (or if I move) then I'll be able to match him .. but for now .. the max I can add is another quad.
Just talked to the builder a couple days ago. Try to build a custom room (extra room) for all my rig in my new house... will have more details later next weekend .. hope it'll work out.
While you're waiting to move into your new house, just get a portable generator. Your wife may not like the sound it makes.:D
I dont think my wife will mind the noises ... note that I use AIR coolers on all my rigs in the ~900 square feet apartment .. + another portable AC running 24/7 ... so noises doesnt really bother my family .. but it will bother my neighbors if I put that thing outside my apt ... lolz
If you're really running a generator, you need to keep it well away from your house. I don't remember what a safe distance is but I think it's a lot more than 100 feet. I know that sounds odd, but there have been a lot of cases of carbon monoxide poisonings from portable generators - even those used only outdoors. If you think about it though it does make sense. They're most often used in the summer because of power outages which means the windows and doors are probably open. In which case, all it takes it a steady breeze that puts you down wind.Quote:

Oh, that was just a joke.:)
We've had a problem in our area with marijuana growers who rent or buy homes. They gut the interior and turn the entire house into an indoor pot-growing operation. They usually alter the electrical box so the power company does not know how much juice they're using to power their grow lamps. Police usually discover these marijuana operations after the electrical box catches fire.
Whewww - glad to hear it. Your boinc farm needs you - not to mention the team.
But speaking of real farms, you'd think the pot growers would get on the solar band wagon. They could spend 100k on solar panels, get CA to pay for most of it and go completely off the grid. Gives a new meaning to "farm subsidies". They'd probably even win a award for being environmentally friendly. Wouldn't that be awkward?
To be completely undetectable, all they'd have to do is put in a couple a/c's to lower the thermal signature.
I spend way too much time thinking about cr@p like this.
It was a good crunching day for you too Viet.:up:Quote:

Three for crunchers and the fourth for utility operation, such as an additional room air conditioner. That was my thinking when I ran 4 circuits to the hamster barn....(the garage...:) ).
No worries on keeping up. I'm pausing right now to clean up a few things, like my clocks, the rack configuration, and my credit card.....:eek: :rofl: :ROTF:
Bob
Thanks for the great great infos Bob! I'll ask the builder about that this Tues.Quote:

Huey: Bob is 100% right..Wire the walls while they are open..
It is just so much cheaper and easier..
A 3/8" wood boring bit and a helper and you can rough out a house in a day.
Even if you don't put in the finished plates..
Do your cat5e to every room in the house as you will need and want it in the years to come.
Today, ddtung got cherry pie, as usual. Shintai had key lime. ShootStraight got blueberry. VietOZ had lemon meringue. And you got, uh, pink lemonade pie.Quote:

Would have probably had more if I had used a x64 OS. I'll do that in about a week. Want to run XP 32-bit for a week, then switch and compare. Also, I think I can bump up the speed on the quad a little.
When Victor's new quads get up to full speed, that should help us some more.:)
Is that an all-time high ( except for DaveDay )?Quote:
