anyones computer burning this summer?

[OS]

My computer is kind of toasty. 63C toasty according to MBM, for system temp reading. Any ways to keep it from melting?

Place a raw hamburger patty on top to help pull off some of the heat.

 

[JohnnyKnoxville]

Yeah mine's so hot a family of iguanas has moved into it

 

[Hamburgerpimp]

Someone say Hamburger??

 

[bolomite]

Yeah, my room has poor ventilation and air circulation, I touched my heatsink and was shocked by how hot it was.

It got so hot, I had to stop overclocking starting this spring. :Q

Now I have a T-bird 800@800mhz, was 800@1050mhz.

Took the cover off and running my cpu fans at the full 12v. Damn loud now. But the temps are good, 45C

 

[kamiam]

yeah both mine have been hitting 105-110 on the inside of my case w/ cpu temps @ 155-165...already had case fans so just installed extra exaust fans on inside...hope this cools off the inside of my cases:Q

 

[EvanFerguson]

Man, I thought I had it bad.

 

[Elledan]

Those ain't PC's but toasters :Q

I had to slow my p3 600 down to 745 mhz, the fastest it will run at 1.65 volts. It was at 810. If I didn't run seti all day, it would have been fine.

 

[Blayze]

yes, and having my AC busted isn't helping.
I took the cover off the case to keep it cooler

 

[blstriker]

Used to be able to run dual 550, now I have to back it down to 412. This is with dual PEP66 even!

Winter here, nothing is too warm

-2 celcius at moment

I broke down and bought a 6000 BTU air conditioner last week - mounted it in the window next to the main system, and ran a 4&quot; dryer vent duct from the upper outlet of the A/C to the front intake fan of the tower . . .

Since I've slipped over to the &quot;Dark Side&quot;, and I'll be swapping in a KK-266-R mobo with a 1.2 Ghz AXIA T-Bird, I justified the $190 as an &quot;overclocking accessory&quot; . . .

Peltier and a water block system would've been cheaper, tho' . . .

 

[kami]

hell no. gotta love central air conditioning.

 

[Blayze]

<< gotta love central air conditioning >>



I used to love mine till it broke :|

Had it checked out and there is no way to fix it
going to have to get a new one and dasm they be expensive
