Title: Is anyone using a Twine or other temperature control sensor? Post by: Raize on March 30, 2012, 07:27:26 PM For more on what I'm talking about view this device here:
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/supermechanical/twine-listen-to-your-world-talk-to-the-internet?ref=card It's $100 and I'm seriously thinking about getting one to monitor or control temperature in the event of an AC failure this summer. I figured at $100 it will pay for itself in a few days, however I wanted to know if anyone else was already doing this and if they had a cheaper solution for remote temperature monitoring without relying directly on the computer doing the mining itself to relay temperature.

GPU temps will also tell you when the A/C goes out. Some of the mining software/packages can increase fans, downclock GPUs, or shutdown if the temps go to high. Packages like BAMT can also notify you.. Title: Re: Is anyone using a Twine or other temperature control sensor? Post by: Raize on March 30, 2012, 07:42:49 PM I'd want it to shut down the operation entirely. I'm talking about a temperature sensor for the room itself, something separate from the GPUs.
