Possible production drop...

or increase, I just don't know. What I do know is that none of the PC's I am about to get F@H on will run 24/7 for two reasons, but both revolve around one...

AIR CONDITIONING!

My room becomes a damned oven with one PC, and even with a window AC unit and the house AC unit it just gets freakin hot in here. That combined with electricity costs and the fact that I've pretty much costed my family too much money as is. Just can't do it.

But as it stands, I only have one PC with F@H. I should have two more as soon as I can, plus a possible one extra. But I think only two of these total will ever be on, but they are both the most powerful ones as well. But it's all a maybe, I may only be able to have my PC with F@H, which would be a definite drop.

    Move farther North. The Arctic is nice this time of year. :cool:

    If they're dedicated Folding rigs, can you stick 'em in the basement or something? Just a thought; I know you're doing what you can. :)

    No basements in Texas :wtf:

    Maybe in a couple months I'll move up to Dallas, it ain't nearly as hot there. But I gotta find a job there first, and god willing, I'll find one soon!

    Lend 'em to a friend or a next door neighbour to use providing they keep folding on 24/7 ... or the SMx Project on condition that when you move, you get 'em back but at least they'd be folding in your name in the meantime and racking up the points for you and the team without cooking you in the process?! :thumbsup:;D

    Just leave it outside in the shade with a padlock on the case so that no one steals your memory :D
