also 2 months of extra mining from not having to wait, I made that worth $140 here in Spain with $0.235/kWh, so about $600 + $150 = $750 + it's fun/educational so add $25 for that, I was all set to bid at 156 BTC or just over

Ah, I'm paying $.07/KWH so I'm not quite at the stage of having FPGAs/BFLs being cost effective. The only reason I would want one, is because my house is quite hot, and I can't mine because of it. My house hits 90 degrees pretty frequently, and is at 86-88 at all times, so I don't want to add the extra heat. If I found a good deal on a lot of mining equipment, Id probably rent a building just to run them.

I'm planning to build a small green data center (open source, based on opencompute.org project), powered entirely by a small-hydro within the property, in a huge farm in Brazil... So, no more electric bills on this site. I think that just rent another place for me, isn't enough... The business plan draft is my hands! I only need the initial investment to buy the land and the small-hydro... I'm sure I'll be able to do that!

I think at these temperatures your single will be overheating and start to throttle. I don't own one but someone from BFL mentioned optimal operating temperature is 72F / 22C.

Jesus, how do you sleep? Before I had AC I'd run to the basement when it hit 75F.

But with wind energy instead of hydro... Good luck!

I think at these temperatures your single will be overheating and start to throttle. I don't own one but someone from BFL mentioned optimal temperature in which Singles should operate without throttling is 72F / 22C.
