molecular how long it's been running like that?
Do you live in the Arctic circle? lol What are you going to do in the summer; move the case inside or are you still going to leave it outside?
Leave it outside, of course. We don't use AC in our flats in germany, so it will be same temp inside and outside in summer anyways.
Ah yeah good point. Hopefully this summer won't be all that crazy. Do you intend to add more airflow in the summer or just leave it as it is? Wood is an insulator though so I'm wondering won't the system overheat? How many fans you got in that thing?
I already removed one resistor from the fan (I'm throttling that using resistors). There's 2 10cm fans at the intake of the inner metal case and one bigger one at the exhaust (white hose on wooden case), nothing fancy, though. Note that basically, the wooden case is open on the bottom ("open" in the sense, that there's only a frame so support the inner case and the center is a hole). There seems to be sufficient airflow, temps look like this:
/sys/devices/platform/via_cputemp.0/temp1_input: 22000
/sys/devices/platform/w83627ehf.656/temp1_input: 40000
/sys/devices/platform/w83627ehf.656/temp2_input: 21000
/sys/devices/platform/w83627ehf.656/temp3_input: 44500
Don't know which is what, but the highest never goes beyond 50 °C. So it gets pretty warm in there, but wouldn't call it overheating. Lets see what happens in summer
