Why is this always meme for PC gaming? Its not even a bad thing IMO as you can cool your PC effectively. As on the other hand with console they will overheat and RROD or whatever the new meme is for console overheating.

It's because europeans don't have a/c so they literally need fans and shit to cool them down.

Just wait when summer rolls in, you'll start seeing all the bitching about the heat.

What the hell is that?

And only new yorkers in poor apartments have window a/c units.

This is what true a/c looks like.
>>
>>339530503
>Why is this always meme for PC gaming
Because it is essentially true.

But consoles overheat during summer constantly like motherfuckers as well.

Much easier even, if I think about it.
I had a PS2, 3, and 360 overheat to the point of shutdown if I did not prop them up to increase airflow and regularly clean out the small ass fans.
Funnily enough, the PS2 slim never overheated even once.

My PCs only ever got worryingly hot, to the point where I did OP related preemptively, but never shut down.
>>
>>339533154
>you put a/c in windows.

>>
I have a PC and I'll tell you what's up.

It's kind of pathetic that in the year 2016 of our Lord, the personal computer has gotten faster, smaller, and more versatile

Yet, in that time, power consumption has not lowered and heat creation has not disappeared.

This goes the same to those massive consoles taking up space.
>>
>>339533378
>you'll start seeing all the bitching about the heat
I guess that explains it then. I always wondered why Europeans always bitched so much about the heat. I live in Phoenix so its hot as fuck in the summer but we just stay inside to avoid the heat. I never even imagined that Euros didn't even have an a/c to keep them cool. What a bunch of retards.
>>
>>339532662
What the fuck? Am I getting memed on? I'm originally from Mexico, and we did not have A/C in the town that I lived at, but I thought that all first world countries like the US, where I live now, and Europe all had A/C.

What the fuck? Poor fucking europoors :(

I'll be fair just this once, a lot of them have older houses so putting in a/c may be difficult.

Or expensive, I mean they got licenses for tvs so maybe there's extra fees for a/c, fuck if I know.

They also over-exaggerate their winters and claim they /never/ need a/c even though global warming will take care of that pretty quickly.
>>
>>339533687
Air conditioning is a somewhat new invention. Homes in Europe and the USA as old as fuck, made from either stone or wood. These old as fuck homes never really accommodated for A/Cs, and it really wasn't until maybe the 70s that new american homes were being built with units.

all new homes/apartments have them standard these days.
>>
>>339533687
Europeans don't need them. They don't live in literal deserts like half of the US and your shitty spic country.
>>
>>339533861
Even poor niggers have an a/c unit in the US. Are you saying eurocucks are worst than niggers?
>>

Most of Europe is either cold or mild for most of the year. A/C is also expensive.

It sounds like bullshit but they really think they're superior for not having a/c.

>>
>>339534031
This may be true, but I never really thought about it.

The step up from where I lived to the U.S. was so huge, I always figured it was about the same in Europe. I never even considered the idea of them having no A/C , like the beanland I was born in.

Power consumption has been significantly reduced. Your passively cooled phone has more processing power than your desktop computer 10-15 years ago while using a fraction of the energy.

Even desktop PC's have seen video cards and PC's use significantly less power than they did 10 years ago.

You are never going to get rid of heat generation entirely.

>Yet, in that time, power consumption has not lowered and heat creation has not disappeared.

What? They actually have. Newer CPUs and GPUs can do the much more work, faster, with the same power usage and heat output as older generation processors.

Going the other way, a modern HTPC with passively cooled, low-power components is much more powerful than a gaming PC from years ago.

>This goes the same to those massive consoles taking up space.

That's why most console lines have a "slim" or "mini" revision towards the end of their lifespan.
The manufacturers figure out a way to make things smaller, and better manage heat, with the same performance as the original model.
