[Area 51]

Keep it as an exhaust?

Ignore me, if the ghetto/industrial/hardcore cruncher/loopiedeloop look is your bag then who am I to criticize

Believe me, there are reasons why the fans are configured the way they are. After 'exhaustive' testing of a gajjion combinations (only a slight exaggeration), the best temperatures in this case were given by using the tops fans as exhausts - but quite a wide margin. I am hoping that one of them will become redundant and can be re-covered with its blanking plate once this loop is up and running.

I'd have loved to hide this stuff away, but there simply isn't room - and I can't afford a bigger case - So, I've just got to use what I've got. I do like the steam powered look - computer cases are too bland (except Toxic's new acquisition) - which still hurts my eyes whenever I look at his pics.

It's dead

 

[Area 51]

[Marine Iguana]

As soon as I get one thing all nice and working something else of mine breaks getting sick of it

Edit: Got it back up and on put everything to stock settings and see if it happens anymore so not happy right now

BTW: nice rigs Toxic and Area 51

I feel for your pain, badly behaved rigs are everyones nightmare, not to mention a constant niggling worry

 

[Marine Iguana]

I shouldn't have said everything is OK with mine as soon as i said that it started to play up

Edit: FFS the upload server is down

 

[edgedemon]

Ha - just had the 'will you jump ship and join us' email from the gpu users group, it was actually a well written request and I completely respect where they are coming from.
But after spending so much time working my way up the rankings here, it would be a shame to leave now, especially when I am only 10 x gtx480's and about 5K worth of new hardware from crushing you all into the ground

They're certainly very selective......do you feel honored?

All going well at Tbag tower's

 

[edgedemon]

It is nice to be headhunted To be honest, Im surprised that they haven't asked you as your output is so close, Im sure an offer will be heading your way soon.

Talk about close..

14) ReaVerUK 9959963

Goes and fires up laptop, going to try and hold you off until the next outage, but with 2 days lost crunching this week, I doubt that I can..

 

[Biffa]

No one ever asks me *snif*

 

[ReaVerUK]

I got a second invite from them as well today you'd think that the first one that got no response would be enough like i said before i aint gonna leave any time soon :

 

[Berserker]

The upload server ran out of disk space. That's one problem I can sympathise with.

 

[Marine Iguana]

And there was me thinking I could start to catch up to Area 51 today oh well tomorrow is another day

 

[Biffa]

Don't feel too bad, I mounted the sli parallel block on my 4 cards in weebeastie and did a leak test which poured liquid all over the cards because I mounted to block backwards

 

[Marine Iguana]

Lol

Epic Fail

(sorry just had to say that)

 

[Biffa]

Yeah but I did it twice before I realised! Should be all dried out now its been a couple of days, but I think I'm going to have to take the blocks off and check each one for peace of mind.

 

[Marine Iguana]

Uploads are up again but a few others are down
