to expand on my previous point:
McLaren Technology Center: (from wikipedia)
Quote
The building is accompanied by a series of artificial lakes: one formal lake directly opposite that completes the circle of the building, and a further four 'ecology' lakes. Together they contain about 50,000 m³ of water. This water is pumped through a series of heat exchangers to cool the building and to dissipate the heat produced by the wind tunnels...

A 145 metre long, rectangular-circuit shaped wind tunnel is located at one end of the building. Team McLaren uses it for testing development aerodynamic parts, as well as testing aerodynamic set-ups. The tunnel contains 400 tonnes of steel and the air is propelled by a four metre wide fan that rotates at up to 600 rpm.

How cool would my rigs run if they were cooled by a 4 meter fan at 600 RPM?

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

The more you believe in Bitcoin, and the more you show you do to other people, the faster the real value will soar!

Wow that's a great idea - an outdoor hot-tub and water-cool all your rigs with the hot-tub water, pipe it in from outside!

Big time, I'm on my way I'm making it, big time, oh yes

116 when you check newegg everyday for the 58xx knowing that the sapphire appears with the add to cart available then clicking. Then finding out that the add to cart has been replaced with add to notify.

117 tired of seeing rings and baseball cards when entering 58xx and 69xx in newegg's search.
