https://i.imgur.com/XfNyj76.png]Batch 2. Active cooling + overclock. Each tweak I apply bumps the GHash. Now I'm shooting for 100Ghash/sec. Who is with me?

Wow, that really changes the bang for the buck equation.
What does that do to the temps and power draw?

Judging by his previous posts, he has an A/C unit that draws as much power as the Avalon itself blow cold air into the intake:  |

quite impressive. I'm planning to do the same thing with a very similar looking AC unit.
Question: did you upgrade the PSU? and if so, what are you running now? and if not, can you verify the make/model of the PSU that came with your avalon?
Thanks

https://i.imgur.com/SQANizl.gifCongrats. Is condensation an issue at all here with the AC cooling it? Just curious.

I've had my AC unit blowing directly at my 3*7970 for over a year now, never had a problem, but in the summer, the AC can barely keep up... temps are getting over 80 C on hot days. |

Have anyone tried to completely submerge Avalon into mineral oil? That works very well for desktop computers.

Fluid would be too viscous for the fanz...  |

Fluid would be too viscous for the fanz... I wonder if there is a water block out there that would fit... 100GH/s with good cooling, might be worthwhile. |

Fluid would be too viscous for the fanz... I've got a system that's submerged in mineral oil (quad E5-4650). Transformer oil to be specific (lower viscosity, higher flash temps, mostly synthetic, no PBAs). Fans don't really care, although that's not the primary circulation method (pump). |

I'm also curious if you are running the stock PSU. |

I've had my AC unit blowing directly at my 3*7970 for over a year now, never had a problem, but in the summer, the AC can barely keep up... temps are getting over 80 C on hot days. Part of air conditioning (heat exchange) works to cool the air cools by removing moisture. Static electricity would be a bigger risk than condensation... the condensate accumulates on the coils of the A/C unit and (hopefully) is removed by some method (a drain?). Static electricity does have a tendency to be worse in dry air and is a bigger risk factor IMHO. I seem to notice this more in the summer months of air conditioned server rooms. Although I am not sure an R2D2 unit such as that would cause any concern for overly dry air and static electricity. |
