There are hundreds of poor mining rigs out there that are abused every day by kids all over the world !!

Mining rigs forced to work, exhausted by their cruel owner

That's some pretty harrowing imagery. Finally, it's good to see some intelligent posts up in this thread too, seems
so far there's just been cranks and kids posting shit.

All them posts about "don't rest your card because of thermal stress" are talking nonsense. It's 100% straight up FACT
that resting your card will ease bearing tension in the fan and prolong silicon substrate integrity.

Probably worthhwile keeping strong magnetic fields at bay too, so don't get your speakers too near your rig. With respect
to that guys that said something about Motzart slowing hashrate, that's pretty hard to believe man.

You realize he was being sarcastic.... right?
You have no idea what you're talking about. Especially the refrigerator stuff. Go read every so often instead of posting on the internet.

You want to know why those magical machines keeps beer cold when they're inside? Because it evaporates liquid in order to keep the things inside of it cold. Do you know how you evaporate liquid? A baby knows how - you heat it up. Now ask yourself where does that heat go after its done cooling your beer? Into the room the refrigerator is located. So you can be extremely stupid, keep the refrigator open, and actually be ADDING heat to the room... OR you could remove the refrigerator from the room all together and thus be removing heat from the room.

Your idea of keeping the door to the refrigerator open to cool off a room is almost as bad as the idea of building a computer and putting it in a refrigerator to keep it cool.
