Living in Florida has it's advantages & also some heat disadvatages at times but the move from up North is still an A+ in my book .

Just wondering if people living in a hotter region have a harder time with keeping thier cpu's cool .
When the temperatures get to 100+F outside & everyone stays inside **G**

Mind you , I'm just curious & don't plan on doing this :)

If you were to take your computer outside with the temperature at 100F in the shade & ran your computer , how much hotter would your AMD cpu get ?

What is the maximum room temperature you have run your computer ?
85F ? 95F ? ........ ?

I'm from PA, it's been 90+ at times in the room where I have my setup. 2 comps running and putting out heat plus the humidity at times is in the 75%+ range, makes it interesting to keep them cool. I've had my old system ( celeron oc'd to 552) lock up twice because of the heat. This will be the first year with the AMD. If I have to, I'll get a room air conditioner and run it.
