My farm. Post yours. 56k warning in effect!

What are the coil overs for (leaning on the IkeaSossaFarm)? And why are they not on it?

LOL, they aren't doing a whole hell of a lot. They're a symbol of my laziness. The front ones are in. The rears are leaning against my cruncher cabinet

They look like they might be Koni adjustables ... but what for I can't tell.

Close. Vogtland for my B5 2.8 Quattro



The car's not doing any crunching yet. I do, however, plan to crunch on the ECU once I figure out how to get BOINC on it

[Kingcarcas]

Can't wait till I have kids and take over their computers for folding projects

But Dad I can't sleep with all those fans running 24/7, can we please turn it off.

Harden the up, Son.

I always love to see naja's "whole-house solution".. maybe I'm gonna do something comparable, someday. For now, it's just a few rigs (mostly) in cases standing around in a pretty random fashion

Okay, so here are some of my machines. First off, the one I use for every day work, and occasionally, some gaming. Under heavy construction, as always.. gonna switch the board for a GB Extreme probably today (---> CPU support), plus the external Chiller I'm getting built for this one is almost ready



Next up is a special system that acts as kind of a showcase rig, used for press reviews, events, etc. Most of the time it is crunching though



Then we have my older Dual Harpertown Server/Cruncher, starring the infamous Assus Z7S WS and a pair of the finest X5450's that ever rolled off the wavers





Here's the Dual X5570, aka file server #2:



Now with better coolers:



Then we have the still-lonely Wall-One (node #1 of my planned i7 Cluster project). Gonna have to do something about it... sometime



Last but not least, my AMD cruncher.. the one and only.. Quad Opteron




Finally, this is a view of my desk where I work




That central heating hasn't been turned on in years, I wonder if it still works

Hold on for pics...

Yes anyone not following the links in Naja's sig is cheating themselves out of some good reading and great pics. Not only does the guy do some awesome cooling projects he does an excellent job of documenting it.

Edited for pics

[Chris_redfield]

What is the case in the pic second down jcool?

[jcool]

That's gotta get pretty loud when everything is at 100% load!

Actually the room is pretty quiet since I shut off the Single Stage unit and went back to watercooling my mainrig. Silent fans everywhere, usually 120mm fans at 1000RPM or below.

What is the case in the pic second down jcool?

Ah.. that's my trusty old Yeon Yang B0420. Huge cube case, and heavy as hell.. someday I'm gonna put a second rig in there. Needs some modding though.

[CaptMorgan]

I'm gonna start this off with a pic from my trip to Hawaii, it's a bit blurry but heck this is WCG not Xtreme Photo. I needed the rainbow and Island pic winter is still here yet I dread the coming warmer weather because I will have spread this stuff out



My main area, messy but effective


My 955BE


Old faithful, my Q6600 this is desperate need of a tuneup


i7 on the fold out table- the area my girlfriend calls "computer land". I think "junk land" slipped out of her mouth once but that was before the holidays when it was very messy


Other i7-this is a "hot" issue that will get WC'd I just don't want it off the grid for more than 5 mins though


Xeon Baby


Who needs computer cases anyways

Who needs computer cases anyways

Exactly!


I'm just sayin'.....

[1200W]

Heres my "little" dustcollector

[CaptMorgan]

1200W got a full on setup there

Thanks , Well it does the WORK

Da Goose can only get a small portion of da farm...

Jeeze whats your electric bill like?

How does the goose fly with all that wind?!?!

He doesn't, he teleports.

Dak that first pic looks like the set of the Nebuchadnezzar.

[gergregg]

Awesome crunching power! Cycles put to good use.

[OldChap]

I'm loving the size of that distribution board on the wall.....well prepared Mr Goose

[Jaco]

that flex pipe hanging on the ceiling with cords intrigues me

[DAK1640]

Hmmm..Flex pipe is cold outside air...Power distribution includes 240VAC. Electric bill roughly $500 monthly...Da Goosey is committed or s/b committed. I have 9 other rigs not photo'd.

I am no where close to being an electrical expert so, I've often wondered about this in the past and have been meaning to ask sooner or later (because I may just finally close on my first home in a month or so)....Isn't it more efficient and therefore cheaper to run our computers/power supplies from a 240VAC outlet instead of 120VAC? I imagine you need to use different plug ends on the power supply cords too....right? Sorry for bein' electrically challenged.
