My production is down 50% because of the Summer heat, can't complain too much since we got an extremely cool Spring.

I feel ya, I'm glad I got my own place, since it has it's own A/C, heat is no longer an issue, only that now I can't have more than two rigs, as opposed to three or four from when I lived at my moms house.

summer here in DK is strange, right now we have 10 degree celcius, where we usually have around 25

17c here, and im only a few hundred KM away...seems to be strangely cold in Denmark!

Well, Was going to get my 2nd rig crunching and the PSU is dead. Great! Trying to jump it, won't turn on. The 24 pin connector has burnt marks in two different spots, wtf happened I don't know. It's been off for a bit, and it was fine before I last used it.

sure, that one one booted it up.... accidently or not? i never heard that a PSU in standby can burn out! :wtf:

Not sure what happened bro, but to me everything looks fine, maybe something fell in it, or I don't know bro. The rig has been put toether for some time, I just didn't have a power strip to hook it up. Now I got one and PSU don't work, everything else in the power strip is working fine

so, the rig died, when it was actually unplugged? You have any people around you, that touch your rigs?

heat discoloration happens over time. It probably was like that for some time. I've had that happen when a board was drawing too much power due to a fault on the m/b itself. It lasted several months but I knew from the temps that something was wrong. One item under speedfan had been showing up as being 120C from the beginning.

It also may have happened when CP moved.

that must have been a pretty hefty elecrical discharge, to burn the 24 pin...i somehow think, it was accidently shut on, by whoever

Chicken Patty · Jun 19, 2011

Could have been during the move and nobody touches my PC's, I live alone. So I am not sure what happened, but I'm not sure if the board is fine, the PSU is shot though.

did moisture got into the rig somehow? that also could have been possible, in a badly isolated room, like a garage

twilyth · Jun 19, 2011

A bad component on the m/b would do this. I have pix someplace of an old m/b this happened to. The 24pin was ok, but the 8pin molex for the cpu cooked. The PSU went soon after the m/b. The fact that there was no popping or smoke tells me this probably happened over a long period of time.

This is why those infrared laser thermometers are a great investment for anyone who builds rigs. You can zero in on the likely trouble spots and see if there are any problems then head them off before they cause wider system damage.

Well there was a loud pop and spark, came from behind the rig, seemed like out of one of the connectors on the PSU.

f22a4bandit · Jun 20, 2011

Really sorry to hear about that PSU, CP. Did you have it switched on attempting to power up? Might have been a surge, but that's just a guess out of left field.

My main rig hasn't crunched at all lately. Main reason is because the computer is too loud for me to sleep with anymore :laugh:

The other reason is because it's so dang hot here. I think it's been 100*+ heat here for two straight weeks. Still got the parent rig running strong.

Just added a little QX6700 cruncher to the mix, thanks to a nice little donation from F150 Raptor. :respect:

F150_Raptor · Jun 21, 2011

So, I see the chip works. That's good to see, since it had been a paper weight on my desk for so long I wasn't sure it would.

I wish I had quad core chips as paperweights! :toast:

Yup, sure does. Now it will spend it's remaining life as a cruncher.

Naw, it was switched off. When I get some time I'll do some troubleshooting and see what I come up with.
