Looks great! What's the temperature inside the cabinet? The highest temperature they have got is around 65 deg Celsius. Summer is coming, let's see that what is the situation then. Open the doors during the summer

Open the doors during the summer Sadly it's getting to be summer time for me to. It means turning all of my fan equipment up and having higher CFM's pushing heat. Since I have made it through a summer before with current mining area it is not so much guessing this year. But everyone can count on prices to go higher if your cooling your gear in summer. If your running with 10K+ watts and stuck with regular fans (evaporation cooling does not work with your weather climate) my thread will show the process I went through - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1020826.0 . I was kinda guessing and making changes until I got it to where I was happy.

Open the doors during the summer I frequently drive my S7 up into the 68-75C range in order to keep down the fan noise, and it hasnt been an issue yet as long as it doesnt start beeping at 80C+

I dropped my S7 F1 down to 600mhz and it was running 40mins @ 68C then come night time it was 82C. It did not beep.

It's plenty safe, but the cooler you can keep electronics running the longer they will last. 75*C is pushing it, though, you don't have much room for error if you're running that hot.

High 70's scares me, a lot of equipment shut down at 80 C. I was told on S3's long ago that they had been tested at much higher .... but I personally never felt safe. And it's coming up to summer so a lot of us are going to get hotter. My only thing is lots and lots of CFM's push the hot air away from miners and exhaust it with a nice exhaust.

Updated picture of my mining shelf, both the Avalon6 and S5 (hiding in the back) live here together now. S5 is powered by 850W atx psu, A6 by 1200W HP server psu (fed from dryer 240v outlet). Vent in wall provides cool air for intake, or I vent the S5 out of it. There is also a window on that wall that I open to give more cool air.

I was running my S7 in some pretty extreme conditions, drawing -15C cold air, running fans at 20%, 800MHz, and ~5.1TH, getting temps in the 78-85 range (unit stops at 85, not 80) for a few days strght in the coldest part of winter, but with every 1C warmer outside, temps of the unit rose ~1C and i had to drop 10Mhz. SP-3x series miners routinely have 110-120C temps on the individual ASIC chips, with 70-80C exhaust temperatures.

Sorry on mistake on shutdown I have not had it happen.. so been a while since I dealt with it. I can say some data centers push them beyond these limits, I have not dealt with one doing it on S7's. But I know on S3 I got a decent amount higher number they said they had tested it to and knew some ran at. Just most would not do this, including myself. But cheap data centers do push these machine pretty darn far. It tends to be the small low budget ones that push it. Mega mines normally put in very good cooling and do not even risk it.

My first rig. Picture of frame: http://imgur.com/sC0PB9nSome pictures of the miner: http://imgur.com/a/mFMfyGpus running between 61-73C with a total speed of 61mhs. iknow its not perfect, but first time trying.

Need to make an extraction exhaust.

Another view showing the side by side setup better. Unfortunately I can only run one miner at a time at this location because I only have one ethernet connection here, so when it's hot I run the S5 but slide it back so that it exhausts out the wall vent. R-Pi controller draws 2.6 watts, wish they made an inexpensive meter for the 240v line, all I could find were in-line devices that cost on the order of $100. I am moving next month and will have a new laundry room to turn into a home mining area.

The ethernet feed to that location is one that is already coming off a 6 port hub, and I don't think you can hub off another hub so no dice. Not to worry, next laundry room mine will have more connectivity. In fact, the thought of building something like that would be indeed good hard work sacrifice!
Necro post much? You quoted a 5 year old post from this thread without moving the conversation along.

Not to worry, next laundry room mine will have more connectivity. If by "hub" you do mean switch, then yes, you can have a switch behind another switch. Hubs are not common equipment these days, but you could do so with a hub as well, but a true hub spams the packet to every port, so much worse. A switch is managed or unmanaged but either way it will not spam every port with each packet once it is told or learns where the packet needs to be sent. I've never done it, but I believe you can go 6 deep, not that I ever would. I am two deep at this time for one miner in one room just because I haven't pulled it out yet.

Transaction fees go to the pools and the pools decide to pay them to the miners. Anything else, including off-chain solutions are stealing and not the way Bitcoin was intended to function. Make the block size set by the pool. Pool = miners and they get the choice.

They mass product the us kill-a-watt. They are pretty cheap I actually had to get one today.... some day I will find a project with my old one connected to it but I could not for the life of me find it in my normal places. One option is very advanced PDU's can tell what it is. I got one thanks to Phil pointing me to a sale on ebay, but I never did get the networking going (yet another project ). The 240 watt meters are a little higher. I bought a fluke meter once when I thought I need it.... once I figure it out I should be able to tell with a clamp that just goes around the cord. So that is my goal is to get it figured out eventually. And on a side note I have enjoyed seeing some PC's brings back so much memories. And love all the options you have with them. So much personality to each one.
