wow i didnt realize the i5 got that hot, my 3930k runs at 70C on load when running at 4.7Ghz and this is with dual water rads and push pull 140mm rad fans, but gotta realize its on the same loop and same pump as the 4 cards and motherboard.
Not running at 4.7Ghz though at the moment, barely makes a difference over 4.3Ghz and puts off more heat.
my problem with folding is that its the only thing, other than burn-in software, to run every part of my computer at 100% full power, meaning CPU at 100%, 4xGPU at 100% and it creates some serious room temp and noise problems. I tried it for 4 days and stopped.
It sucks so much power from my 1200w power supply that the 92mm exhaust fan on the PSU automatically goes into highest rpm and it starts putting out MORE heat than my electric space heater. So the room becomes a furnace and sounds like a jet engine. I wonder if that's normal for a PSU to act like that. ohwell
oh well, putting out like 30-50kppd with just the CPU folding
looks good to me
i should also mention i have a thin-box running an older atom processor that i set up with crunchbang folding. it is putting out a massive 150ppd...150... -_- i think it has completed 2 WU since i started. I should have it folding under another username just to show how pathetic it is
