yeeup agreed. Its hot.

Upstairs where my desk is, it feels like someone left the heat on cremate.

cpu is idle @40 and motherboard 31. Not bad but ~10 degrees higher than it normally is.

time to turn the fans up a notch.

Let us know how many extra bucks it is heh. The bar down the street finally got their AC working so I have a valid (like I need that) excuse to go there.

Aint posted in a while but I must say, it is FREAKING hot!!! And my 5850 is STILL satisfied with 55% fan. No other heat problems yet and I'm in a room pushing 40C ambient. Also, anyone else notice their 5850's getting better and better as they're broken in? IDK maybe I'm imagining this but I'm getting wayyyy better framerates than I used to with the same driver version. Still in <3 with my rig :)

Way to hot. Probably almost died yesterday trying to get the lawn mowed. Had to finish it today and I'm one hurting unit. I think there was one day last year it got this hot, and it looks like we're in for a lot of this this summer. I might have to break down and get some AC.

Not to rub it in again or anything but living right on the ocean (Eastern Passage along Shore Rd.) has it's advantages. I can open my windows and the breeze cools the place down very quickly. I think 24*C is the highest I've seen it get with windows open and even then, it's a breeze 24 degrees which isn't so bad.
