Sorry guys, I'm just not into it any longer.

It's getting too damn hot in my office at home to keep the machines running like that and I've been asked to stop running it at work. :(

If anyone else is interested in doing the DF stats, I have a spreadsheet that I used to keep track of the milestone makers. PM me and I can send it to you.

Peace.

Ditto what JetBlack69 & grunter said. And I know how you feel about losing your work PC's. :-(

52C for the CPU temp? Pffft...nothing. :)

I had my XP1800+ well over 60C for a while until I got that heat pipe heatsink/fan combo. They're loud but effective.

I don't know what the room temp is, but the cpu is up to 62 and I really don't want to push it. I know that's well within limits and I could cool it down (running a silent PC with low output fans now), but I think I'll just wait until it cools off outside and probably come back some time this fall :).

Damn living in Atlanta! ;)

Try el paso texas. Its been over a hundred the past 7 days. It hit 103 yesterday and 106 the day before. I've been struggling
with the heat here too. I've taken the sides off the computer cases and I have 2 fans blowing onto the computers. This has allowed
me to keep the proc.'s in the 45-50 degree C range. Of course my electric is on the high side but with 4 computers, 2 monitiors, 2 large aquariums,
a swamp cooler and of course the usual appliances it is high ($103.00). Thank goodness its a small 1 bedroom apartment. If it had been a house I
would be broke from the electric bill alone
