It really makes you think about upgrading your hardware regularly, so that you have more efficient folding rigs, for cheaper electric bills. (and higher points as well :))

you could be lucky like me and have your work allow you to run it and not pay a dime on electricity cost

hmm , apox  cost of a full use 24hr 60amp breaker ? (had 8 puters going back in the day 24-7 on a 20amp -but it was for free)
 
always came home from work with only 2-3 work orders running and would have to restart for the night
 
anyone running 24hr farm flawlessly ?

When you don't pay the bill, it's a pretty sweet deal :)

I run 24 hours, unless I'm gaming. Total electricity cost per day is $1 according to the battery backup. If I had a second computer it would be a farm. Luckily I can keep the door closed to save on ac costs. Makes the room nice and toasty 365 a year.

Thanks for this post, I checked my power company and did the math and turned out if I leave my PC folding for 2 days I pay about 4 dollars. I think what I will do is fold for 48 hours a month. It still racks up around 2.5 million points, but when my computer is eating almost a full KWH an hour when folding, I need to be careful :) Not to mention I don't want to melt down my titans before the next titans come out ^_^

Last month it cost me $447.05 total electrical cost in my all electric home.
Folding on two computers and running the AC hard.
One PC CPU 2600k at 4.5 OC and two 980 HC at 1500 MHZ the other one is 2700k and same GPUs at same OC.
The 2600k is the one I use almost all the time watching netflix or gaming on. I just let if fold while doing all of that and still get a lot of points out of it.
Currently showing 718,869 ppd on it while in use one core 21 and one core 18 wu.

That's some serious folding! I dropped the a vid card into my files server to help out since it's running 24/7 anyways. I keep catching myself looking at cards to fold more, it's like a virus. I've been able to hold back so far lol.
