Temperature in the room where I have both my mining rigs: 111 degrees F.

Time to shut down the miners until this heat wave passes!

(no, don't want to get AC)

Have you considered not living in the desert? ;D

I live in Michigan its above 90 all this week - reaching 99 in a couple days.  I would not want to be running a mining rig in this weather without AC, especially because its so humid.

Oh, here's another helpful hint. Clean out the air filter in your A/C regularly. It helps a LOT.

A/C generally not necessary in MN. This week is unusually nasty. If I lived in the desert I wouldn't be suffering through the humidity of a rainforest.

And in the desert it gets downright cold at night...

You had to know this was coming - Heat Wave Currently Sweeping U.S. Forces Miner To Surrender (http://www.bitcoinminingaccidents.com/?p=470)

70F here today... felt warm to me.

i can't even convert F to °C. but there's only been 3 days this year at >30°C, so i'm fine.

That would be 21°C.

Here's been above 30°C high temperatures for the last week; next week is supposed to be above 35°C. And this is New Hampshire! Fortunately cleaning out my air conditioner's filter has changed my bedroom from Finnish sauna to Arctic circle. ;D

Fixed.
:D

Yea it is very horrible where I live, thanks to central air, not to bad where my PC is mining 25.2c, 5% humidity. Outside,high temps and the humidity just makes it unbearable to go outside, unless you have a in ground pool with shade.

I actually don't mind heat. But these dew points are kidding me.

Does your room have a window? If so, you could consider making some kind of a air duct to direct the exhaust from your mining rigs directly out the window.

Thats hot.

I have mine in a separate room with two opposite windows fully opened, so air goes throw and I think I will be able to keep operating during the summer. The only bad thing about this is the rain.

It's July 19th.

Summer is in the future for you?  Are you in the southern hemisphere, or northern Canada?

Lol, canada experiences summer the same time you americunts do :P

Im in south Europe but its being a cool year.

turning some of mine off as well for the next few days.. supposed to be close to 100f for a few days.  :o

Hey, I said NORTHERN Canada (e.g., Yukon or Northwest Territories), not talking about places like Toronto which are actually south of many US cities (strange but true!)...

I just looked up the weather forecast for Dawson, Yukon Territories, CA -- high 64 (F) and low 45 (F). That's not summer! hahaha

Get a large fan at costco/wallmart/whatever and watch your temperature drop by 10 degrees.  keep the air moving, but you might already be doing this, i don't know.

It's about 30c inside here right now.

45c loads on my 5850s  ;D

I envy you where ever you live...  8)

I'm guessing New Zealand from his nick :D

US

30c is pretty warm anyways..

Yea, 30c is hot, it was 42c outside today, then + the humidity made it awful. Couldn't be outside more than 5 minutes, felt like radiation eating the skin.

I'm in Wisconsin and it's been in the 90s but my basement is still under 70 :D Just run it in your basement if you have one :D  Btw when winter rolls around, we're actually going to be able to discount power costs completely because like 250-1000W of mining power that's being dissipated as over 99% heat is going to be really nice and take the load off our furnace.

Sell your rigs, buy an air conditioner.  Totally worth it.

Damned Internet started to go off and on all day, then the power followed suit. Time for a Generator!

Maine = 97% trees

Still love it

Yep, mining rigs are going to have to move to the basement, I think. If I can find any space down there.

Thanks for the Reminder!  Just did the filters on my Mitsubishi Slim Jim.....
