    Love the app :cooldude:
    I had 30.3 DegC in the computer room when I got back from work - still, beats the high 30's I used to get before I put the 12" extractor in :D

    Its from my Fibaro App on iPhone. Have an HC2 at home. :thumb:


    Also lets me keep an eye on the costs:

    :sigh:


    HC2 lets me cold reboot the computers. Helpful if remote access is not available and things go wrong and power cycle is only option...

    Well I've broken into the top 50 and hit 35mil points. Sadly though it's come to a head at home and the wife has made it crystal clear that she wants the TV room back.

    To be honest, with the weather as it is, I can't argue as it's currently 36.5deg C in the room. Once the weather gets colder then hopefully I'll get my gaming rig back to folding.

    I'll still keep my 2nd PC on it 24/7, but it's not quite the same. Still, she hasn't said I can't turn that into a watercooled dual 780ti build ;)

    ... and some people think heat and cost are the only issues ... the other key factor (that you've just run into) is the 'spousal effect' - ignore it at your peril :hehe:

    i have had to move my 2 760s upstairs in the back room to keep the temps out of the front room to keep the wife happy

    but added 2 660s to the front room instead

    so the 780 and the 2 660s are ok now for the front room cooler running
    and a 660ti and 2 760s in the back room hotter

    Checking in at 25M :) Only taken me 6 years!

    Great to see the same names and incredible PPD,

    Sadly it was the 'spousal effect' that did my 'folding room' - well that and 2 boys,

    Still ticking along with the gaming rig though :)

    There's absolutely nothing wrong with 'slowly but surely' - so well done on 25M :thumb:

    Well done everyone, some good milestones getting hit. :clap:

    Got through 1.1 billion the other day. So delighted I've been able to do this, and I'm incredibly lucky also. It'll all come crashing down some day but it's awesome to add as much as I can to the team while I can. Went through years of virtually NO ppd, remembering when 2,000ppd was all I could muster. Hopefully we can catch a few of the teams ahead soon! :rock:
