I'm have my air conditioning set at 74F. it used to be at 68F but i felt i was not letting my body get used to the outdoor higher temperatures. I liked it at 80F my systems didn't!

Well, try to post your actual temperatures (mid summer). This question is geared more to the room were your pharm is located (most of use have their farm in their bedrooms) but other have a dedicated room for all of their machines

Hot summer so far. Temps running 96-102*F
Regulated A/C with 4 temp variations:
8am=76*F
5pm=75*F
9pm=72*F (I like it cooler when I sleep)
1am=71*F (Temps outside drop - so does A/C)
My computer room has french doors with the thermostat mounted right outside the entrance. I had it set 70-74*F but that was a couple of months ago when the outside temps were only in the 80's. PC's like it better when the room is <72*F. I have had to back two systems OC down by 50 and 100Mhz. Heat problem - Lock ups in the late afternoon.

Currently the air conditioner is off because it is such a nice cool day, and the computer room is at 36C or 96F.
When it really gets hot we turn on the air conditioner and cool things down to 85F.

No ac in the house- I despise ac
Of course, I am not fond of high temperatures either but.....
I'm just a chronic malcontent
I watercool heavily and my Farm is in my cellar (25-30c) so my rigs are all doing ok- highest cpu temp: 44c.

I'm lucky enough to have a good, fairly new central a/c. We keep it at 75*F. (about 23*-24*c) It warm's up a little in the late afternoon when the sun hit's the front of the house. (I live in South FLA)
Good insulation and a well sealed house keep's the electric bill reasonable.

Home office is in the basement with 4 Athlons residing there. A/C set at 70. Temp in the basement is probably in the low 60's.

Hummm, note to self: Figure out why California homes don't have basements.
Second note to self: If you ever build a house, include a basement.

LOL - good question. A basement is almost like "free" space in a house. If your land has enough gradient in the right direction you might as well have one. Of course they usually have issues like water drainage, but they can be handled if done properly from the start. Certainly is a good place to keep a farm - you don't hear the noise, stays cool, and stays out of the way.

How many elephants make it that far north? It's probably more like blubber up there.

when i used to have 8+machine sitting in the room, i had see room temp hit (mobo temp according to MBM5 since it's not inside a case and sitting on a shelve) 42-44C in summer day!!! and still around 38C at night!! and that was one of the main reason for me to re-do my whole farm (since May) w/ less machine but keep the same amount of WUs. oh, it was when the AC is ON!!
right now, it's a nice 32-34C in the room that my phram at.

That takes me back to my earlier days when I had 4 single machines, 2 P3 duals, 1 quad xeon server, and 1 quad ppro server, all in my upstairs home office. Not only was the noise incredible, but it was often 95F+ with the AC running full time. Didn't take me long to work on that arrangement!
