That job would suck.

Yes is would - I’ve done biohazard cleanup before but nothing even remotely like this . Doing that at a nursing home during all of this would be an absolute nightmare.

Not to mention how uncomfortable that suit  looks.

There has to be some kind of cheap ice water cool suit option..

 Yes, but not for army national guard.

Those tyvek type of suits are miserable. They don’t breathe and will overheat you in the bat of an eye, particularly whole wearing a respirator like that.

That’s what got my attention in the first place.

Question: What would be the minimum amount of computer necessary to keep a 1060 or a Radeon GTX580 gainfully employed? Perhaps even close the CPU slot to save electricity and just allow the GPU to churn?

You wouldn’t need much, 500w power supply and a motherboard with a free pcie x16 slot and that would do it. I’ve built a bunch of mining rigs using Celeron processors so you don’t need much compute to feed to GPU.

I’ve got a Dell tower in the garage with a Core-Duo-era quad core processor. That would be greater than a Celeron, no? I’ll go and look inside the case today.

The processor would be fine, but the trick would be whether or not the power supply could handle it in a pre-built dell.

Right. The Precision tower was good. Not sure about that Optiplex. I’ll go open the case and have a look. Also, size is an issue as these cards are gargantuan.

Definitely!

I looked inside the case and not. Even. Close. I’ve been poking around inside this Precision tower lately and the old Optiplex is physically anemic by comparison.
