Is your Power Supply upside down ? ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) Yeah, that looks like a recipe for heat death. This is how it should be ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.bestofmicro.com%2FY%2FW%2F312296%2Foriginal%2Fpsu-bottom-07-EN.png&t=665&c=I27phJQJRurssA)

I'm not difficult. ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) Taking the 6870's shroud apart WAS ! lol I'll try the 2.5's on the 6870 in a day or two. The 2.8's didn't help but it was worth the shot. 70 yr old's miner/htpc ... Is your Power Supply upside down ? ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) Thanks for the 'heads up' guys, but I'm good. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) That case is an Antec V2, and just like my 300, does not have a bottom psu intake. With the side panel on, the Thermaltake TR2 runs warm and seems normal. Its verrry cool with the side panel off. I was thinking that I should cut one out for the 300, but ended up scrapping that idea after I figured out how to get the hcg 750w, the air flow it needed. I did this by setting the gpu's fans to approx 50-75%. Now that the gpu and psu fans are working together, the psu runs freakishly cool even with the front/side panel and filters on. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Looky at what I just snagged the last of ! Antec cp-850w psu - $50 LMAO pEACe http://www1.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=33_826&item_id=021536

Ya I have an Antec 300, which has it's PSU mounted on the bottom, but it also doesn't have a PSU intake built into the bottom, so after a bit of research I have my PSU mounted with the fan facing up, just like the one in the pic.

The 300 AB and/or the AB II has one. update.. I forgot to mention that the SDK 2.8s seem to have stopped the odd 'worker is idle' errors and my accepted shares per hour rate is also up. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Also... I FOUND MY FIRST EVER BLOCK !! LOL WOOOOT OOOHHHYYYAAAA The 5850 found it just before my initial post. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fimg.techpowerup.org%2F121231%2F1st%2Bblock.jpg&t=665&c=LT3MMMOkK1-aRw) Happy New Year all !

That means you'd have to be paying $0.12/kwh to pay $1000/month. That is a lot of electricity to be paying for 30GH/s....

You are only getting 2.62. There may be some significant savings if you take the time to tune these up a bit.

Now I'm gonna have nightmares of GPUs falling out of the sky and hitting me while I sleep. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) You know the super long twist ties that come with your PSU cables? They work, 1.5 years out and not one failure. Actually an old pic there. Down to 3 identical rigs in the basement mobo and all w/ two 5970's, 5870, 5850 all reference design and one BFL (aka Bull Fucking Lame) each. Very glad I just trimmed the fat (5830's non-ref. 5850's) from the cave and didn't sell out everything.
