kingdingeling Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 They rig's been off for a while, summer means it's been turning my room into a sauna (I live right under the roof). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
psycho_terror Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 i got tired of my GPU constantly crashing, and my new CPU runs a little too hot for me to be comfortable folding on it. i'll probably get back into it when i get a new card.

DLS2008 Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 Came home from college and don't want to run the electric bill up at home so now just my laptop fold. I dropped about 10K PPD by not folding on my desktop. The summer months see a large drop in folders. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjmagneto Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 I've been shutting down once in a while as it's been 100+ around here and I'd rather have the A/C going since the kids are home from school. I'm not running my GPU2 card at the moment either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheeseMan42 Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 I shut down in the summer because of the heat. I fire it up in the winter because of the cold. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulktreg Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 I run two GPU clients in winter because of the cold and one in summer because of the cold! I can appreciate summer temperatures and utility bills are a problem. .. when you can. Cheers Paul Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verran Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 I quit folding when I started paying the electric bill. That's basically the same for me, except for me, it was "I quit when I stopped splitting the power bill five ways." Roommates do have their up-sides.

GabrielT Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 I am folding, took a break for a month or so and now started up again last month. I just broke 100,000 points actually. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scr4wl Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 I'm folding but have been stock in the same place for a long long time. Probably, because I've only got one rig folding right now though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
