Can anyone report how hot (as reported by cgminer) their Rev3 units run? Curious to see how they compare to the Rev2 units.
About 63 to 64 degrees C. But that's in a 90+ degrees Fahrenheit room, i.e. my $215 p.M. mining office.
In fact, the [Nvidia] graphics card of the Toshiba laptop that runs CGMINER and the ZTEX miner seems to be on the fritz due to the heat and I just ordered a 17" HP laptop as a replacement - it's on sale for $699 today.
How the heck do you live in there without getting heatstroke?
I don't "live" there - that's an office I rent (utilities included) in an office building for $215, and when I work there for more than 20 minutes, I take off my shirt and work in my undershirt, like a redneck.
I had an office even before I started mining, and got into Bitcoin mining less than a year ago as an afterthought, as a way for the office to pay its own rent.
Does that make sense, so far?
But now I've been infected by the Bitcoin fever and am trying to get a cash flow in the low-to-mid 4 figures going, with a Largecoin miner on order, a mini-rig box on order and 12 Singles on order, 4 of which have been delivered so far.
Utilities included, eh? Hmmmm.... I might have to search for something similar in my area!
Be careful though. Sometimes, if the landlord traces it back to you, they might have the right to terminate your lease with very little warning.
Well, I'd certainly talk to the landlord about my plans with the place beforehand! I would hope that Inspector has done the same.
About your plans to draw 4000 W out of two circuits (left wall 20A breaker, right wall 20A breaker), as I did in Palo Alto?
Do you seriously think the landlord would approve of that?
When you're driving home from a party, where you've had a couple of beers, and you see a police car parked at the curb, do you really stop your vehicle, walk up to the officer and say, "Excuse me, sir, I've had a few drinks, would you please be so nice and give me a breathalyzer test, so that I'm officially cleared to drive home?"
Or would you rather make sure you're not speeding, then grip the steering wheel tightly and drive by?
As for the office, I go by what's in the lease contract.
If it says "utilities included": Fine with me.
Due to the Obama economy, there are still lots of office vacancies. If a landlord kicks me out, I'm certain there are other landlords who are more than happy to rent an office to me.
and pray that no rat gets in or something
