I honestly fear water more than heat living in this shithole.

>>341994052
I've got liquid cooling, so summer heat fluctuations don't bother me nearly as much. To be really honest, I've lost more computer equipment to thunderstorms than to the sun, and that's what I'm worried about.

If youre playing during a Thunderstorm, theres a chance you can fuck up parts if it blacks out or you lose power or some shit.
>>
>>341994747
What is that and where do I get one?
>>
>>341995339
portable aircondition and jury rigged solution to keep hot air from coming back in trough the window.

two sheets of plastic taped togheter and a hole cutout for the hose.

>>341994052
We are only going to have 38ÂșC tops like last year, add that my PC is crap and not overclocked and there is a lot of wind here.

two front intake fans that follow the cpu's temps. another intake 140mm from under the case. two exhaust fans, one in the back running at full speed and a manually controlled top one. arctic freezer 13 pro CPU cooler for my i5 3570k (@4.6GHz) doing the job nicely. twin turbo II gpu cooler on gtx 680. just before summer what i usually do is change the thermal paste and its fine for greek summer with no air condition.
>>
full watercool setup + aircondition
>>
Not only this happens while browsing and doing nothing else but im also suffocating myself.

First day with 39C and Jul/Aug is yet to come.
Make it stop please
>>
>>341996813
you can make those 39c become 16~24c if you prompt for a solution like this

GPU and CPU never go over 20 C at full load.

Can you guys even into water cooling?

Plus my home has central air. It's fucking chill in there. Sometimes I put a sweate on.
>>
>>341999041
shouldn't it be sucking air out?
>>
>>342000228
i am attatching a blower onto that heatsink pictured
>>
>>341994286
If you're any kind of brit worth his salt, you'll be begging for the rain to come back as soon as the heat picks back up.
>>
>>341994386
