Doing a quick experiment.

It was 33F last night and it got chilly but the central heat still barely came on. That's all I care about. I wanna keep the ambient high enough without using the central too much. I think if the area was a bit smaller it would keep it nice and warm.

Yea pretty much, till spring hits.

Quit folding. What appeared to be doing something was just the gradual increase and decrease of heat during the day :|
Leaving the folding off or on made no real difference besides during the middle of the day because it feels like spring right now. 60-70 during noon, 20-40 at night for lows.

Heh, your texas temps are like the ones in ga right now.
Besides that, just do a schedule to let your pc fold at night or in the early morning hours.
I let my cpu and gpu fold from 10pm-7am, if I need my pc all day I dont let it fold not unless the wu is on a strict timeline.

You have 2 good computer components man, just setup a scheduler in windows and let it manage it with custom times and dates.

Well I figure I can keep electric numbers down if I don't need the heat or the folding if they stay at the same temp through the night.

Strange your rigs aren't keeping the area warm... Mine alone keep a 16x16 area nice and warm through out the winter.

2 rigs (1 1/8th the power of the other) wont keep over 1200sqft worth of house warm by themselves.
