I like where this thread is going So basically the suggested idea is to have pots of boiling water in room until I get to the desired humidity. Sounds simple enough - if I had hot plates. Next best thing is to try the same with the...

Aaargh I forgot all about the HDDs. I could just remove the drives I'm not using, but this could seriously damper my efforts. Even so, I could most likely use HDDs until about 50-60% RH. I would have to look into stealing the ssd from my...

So now that the condensation issue is out of the way, how high do you think I can get the humidity using that boiling water method? All of need is enough data points to be able to get a defined curve. Reproducibility is needed but...

I checked an online dew point calculator, and it reports that the dew point is 18C at room temperature of 23C and relative humidity at 80%. I'm not sure what exactly that means, but I'm pretty certain that all it means that my hardware...

Oh that's great to hear. The last thing I want is to jeopardize my equipment for the sake for test . I'd love to hear your idea for the moisture - any idea is better than no idea. Even if its not practical (yet), it could very well be...

Hi, I'm trying to do an experiment to figure out the relationship between the relative humidity of a room and the temperature of the CPU. I've already posted about this in the Thermalright Archon thread (link) because thats where I got...

Just a mini update: I've been planning to do a couple tests to see how humidity affects the cooling efficiency of this cooler. Theoretically, a higher relative humidity should offer lower temperatures (due to the higher specific heat...

I built my "little" HTPC/SSF server a couple weeks ago. CPU is an i5 3570k and an Asrock H77 Pro-4m board on 12GB of Corsair Vengeance RAM. It has a 160GB Intel 320 Series SSD for the boot drive, and various WD Green drives for storage....

Whoo! About darn time I say. I've put in hundreds of hours into GPU folding - only used to get about 8500ppd with my GTS 450. Recently I've stopped because the W/ppd was too low to justify folding for extended periods of...
