[email protected] rack/shelf space during summer heat

[Cerberus]

I have a HVAC controlled basement, approx 24U of rack space, 8 pci-e x16 slots, and two wire shelves.

 

I'm willing to host peoples machines/cards for free (donations are nice)

 

includes power and free 24/7 teamviewer access

 

I'll set up the OS (probably ubuntu) and fold under your name.

 

 

I also completely understand if you think i'm batshit, but I want to keep our point production at least 50m a day.

 

 

Currently hosting:

@Avacado : 3x rtx 2060

@firedfly : 2x rtx 3080ti

@ENTERPRISE : 3x Tesla m40

@iamjanco : 1x gtx 1080

 

 

 

Donations for more pci-e slots (using EXHW "tip me" feature)

 

$0     $20    $40    $80     $100     $200     $300     $400    $500     $600(GOAL)

Wow, an amazing offer no doubt!  If I had some spare GPU's I would get them sent to you for some Folding love. 

 

[Cerberus]

ALSO, only team 239902 allowed.

well, i also have two more gangs in my fuse box, my power company has a hard cap at $250/mo (pre existing covid crap)

 

i'd say hard limitation would be ~5000w  (i'd need psus)

I hope you don't have porch pirates in Missouri, I'll PM you the tracking number when I get it. Would be a shame to lose THIS particular box.

We're saving all of those pics for the ExtremeHW Onlyfans account.

Gotta pay for all that hardware somehow

Seriously though, great offer @Cerberus!  Only card I'd have that I wouldn't mind parting with would be an RX 580, and those don't fold worth a darn anyway.  Maybe my GTX 960 or 970?  How do those do?  I think I'm scheduled on the team though as an AMD card.  My 290x, I won't send, its part of my collection.....and that's the card I usually fold on when the weather permits.

you have my respect... if for whatever reason I end up with an extra gpu I'll contact you... I just gave my only extra 5700xt to my sons friend who was still running an old 970.

ideally i'd like to only run things that would do 500k ppd or more, if it gets crowded enough, i'll send back the owners 'lowest' card.

Don't worry, I got that covered. Being the first donor I expect best PCI-e/airflow positioning

[Fluxmaven]

Is noise an issue? I have a Quadro P4000 being underutilized in my Plex server that I could send over, but if you put a real load on it, the single slot fan can get really annoying. 

[The Pook]

10/10 neat

 

the only real spare hardware I have at the moment though is a K2000 and I doubt you'd want to waste rack space on that 

[iamjanco]

@CerberusI've got a spare MSi GTX 1080 Sea Hawk EK X that's not doing anything if it will help the cause (not mine, but it looks like what follows):

 

 

Not sure if you're running anything water-cooled though.

[ENTERPRISE]

I may have one or two Tesla M40's that I may be able to send. Will let you know

I'm not using it; PM me and let me know where to send it. I'm pretty sure you'll get at least 500K (if not 700K+) PPD out of it, when you've got time to get to it.
