Title: Now that is cool :-) EDIT: UK outdoor mining temps Post by: stryker on November 23, 2011, 08:00:29 AM I'm in the UK and keep my mining rig in the garage outside.

Why not use it to keep your house warm?
Title: Re: Now that is cool :-) Post by: stryker on November 23, 2011, 11:41:47 AM 2 main reasons really, given its an open frame rig
1) Noise, though granted that can be "managed" to a degree 2) Kids, sedate, giveaway, bury at the top of the garden? dunno if I'd get away with that :-) Title: Re: Now that is cool :-) Post by: Turbor on November 23, 2011, 07:35:27 PM What kind of rpm does a 5830 see at 100% fan ? My ASUS 5850s run between 41 and 49% fan which equals 2400 to 3000 rpm.
Title: Re: Now that is cool :-) Post by: stryker on November 24, 2011, 09:51:43 AM I would have to check but given the figures above I'd say 2-2.4k rpm.
Card 1 is a sapphire which has proven to be a superb card! clocked to 1010mhz and stable as a rock. Card 2 is a XFD pile of crap, clocks to 975mhz, runs hot and a crash means a system freeze. Note as the environment becomes warmer the temp diff grows... during summer the XFD was about 12 deg C above the sapphire (bearing in mine the Saph is clocked higher). I have noticed though as the figures above show, between the 2 brands of 5830 I have, 50% fan on each is a significantly different RPM, the difference grows as the percentage rises. Title: Re: Now that is cool :-) Post by: Turbor on November 24, 2011, 11:37:02 AM Well i was more thinking that it's perhaps 2k7 and 2k9 at 50% but the slower the better (less noise).
