Your PC still alive /v/?
>>342480678
Define alive
Actually just cleaned the insides for the first time yesterday. Didnt know PCs got THAT dusty, holy fuck.
>ac set to 70
What's the problem?
>>342480678
No. It's in pieces in my garage. I'll probably never put it back together though. By now the hardware is probably over 8 years old. I keep telling myself I'll salvage the hard drives and the heat sink, but I really just want the porn off the hard drives and heat sinks aren't THAT expensive. This is a nice one though.

PS4 literally going to melt in this weather.
I don't even have an AC and my components never go above 65c. Do people just not clean their PCs or not have coolers?
Ive always wondered what its like to be a peasant without central air.
>>342481359
jesus
I'm in the desert with no AC and my computer's doing fine.
May need to dust at some point soon though.
>>342485136

>tfw stepping out on your deck after a long day of vidya in the AC
One of the best summer feels.
You guys have nvidias and intels and you cant even afford ac or swamp coolers? "Wealth gap" my ass.
It's only 16°C outside, I think my toaster will manage.
>>342485621
32°C and rising here
>>342485062
>That GPU temp
my pc is cool as a motherfucka
>>342485652
It's an aplication error. If the shit really where in that temp, there would be liquid metal flowing out of the PC.
>>342480678
my cpu consistently gets to >90c, but i haven't crashed or anything yet. i guess i need to save up some neetbux and buy a new cooler.
>>342485834
Wow anon, thanks for clarifying, I totally thought it was real
>>342485893
you need to buy a new cpu
Running a laptop and it gets pretty hot. I have to set my AC fan to high and the temperature to 67 to keep things cool enough.
GPU: 86
CPU: 94

Yeah, anywhere it's all cool here.
>>342480678
Im wondering how many more summers my i7-2600k will last. Its given me many good years.
>>342485593
Shit, your average $15 fan nowadays will work pretty well.

This is actually what North Hemisphere fags think is hot.
>>342480678
do you fucking people not have central heating and air?
Living in a brick house really does make a huge difference. I mean it'll still get super fucking not and I'll have to turn th3 AC on but it takes longer than other houses so that's cool. My computer runs fine though even when my GPU is at 99% usage it still doesn't get super hot or anything even when it's 70 or 78 in here.
>>342486406
kek, I forgot Americans generally don't make their houses out of fucking brick.
>>342480678
Its ok I guess, my home's temperature doesn't go above 20 even in the summer.
Yeah, just got new fans
My PC has always been fine despite me not caring a tiny bit about it. Though I had to replace my GPU about half a year ago since it started shitting itself and I couldn't play vidya.
>that feel when 10 year old PC
>>342486489
Honestly you can make a lot more interesting and nice looking houses if you're not using brick.
>>342480678
It's winter here in Australia. Even then my shitty laptop sits on top of two plastic containers so that it can get the air flow it needs.
Vidya card died, replaced with a slightly better
Everything else okey dokey.most of my hardware is over 7 years old
Mine is properly cooled, so it's fine. Doesn't really make any serious noise either. Like 3kg of heat sinks in there for a single gfx card system.
>>342486647
Same if you use paper mache, doesn't make for a good house though.
>>342486404
Air conditioning is pretty rare in the temperate north aka the developed, habitable part of the world. If you don't live there, who cares? Cavemen living in the desert don't even have computers.
Major i'm burning up.
>>342486780

>>342480678

>>342480678
I treat it like it's my child.
>>342487213
hit it and pour whiskey over it?
>>342486948
Good air flow and dust cleaner every 3 weeks makes sure it breathes easily. If you needed that much might as well bought some uranium rods to power it too.
>>342480678
there's your problem faggot, you're suppose to pull warm air out, not blow it in
>>342485136
>I don't even have an AC and my components never go above 65c. Do people just not clean their PCs or not have coolers?
some people overclock, even on shitty stock coolers, some people have poor airflow in their case, some people don't have AC, some people never clean their PCs, some people use the same computer for four or more years without re-applying thermal paste.
>>342487182

My PC already died a few weeks ago.
Waiting on the RMA for he cpu/mobo/ram and I can be back in business again. Having no PC us suffering.
i always sell my pc in summer , buy consoles play exclusives then sell in Fall.
though this summer even ps4 getting hot.
i started to use laptop cooler
Warframe is killing my machine, but I'm addicted to Warframe. What do.
>>342486992
I want to overclock over 5GHz for my i5-4670k, and plus while under 100% load I can stay in the 40C-50C range at 5GHz, and for aethestics

>>342487679

>>342480678
nothing changes in my pc during summer, except the idle temps raise a few degrees. Load temps have been 68-73°C for months (GPU wise)
whats with the pc gaming in summer meme? are u all using cases from the 90s?
>>342487759
I don't
I was asking how Warframe was killing your PC
>>342487626
well obviously but that's not the only reason
I'm not a retard who doesn't put fans in his computer so I notice a temp increase of about 3-5 degrees maximum across the board

Well, at most summers hit like 25-30C here, so my rig's doing fine year round.
I get about an extra 5-10C under load but nothing my rig can't handle.
>>342490793
>AC
And then amerifats wonder why they keep dying because of cancer.
Is pic related bad? Will these temperatures damage / kill my laptop?
>>342489689
That's what you get for buying games
>>342480678
My ultra low-budget eMachine from 2011 has an internal fan the size of a silver dollar and was idling at 70C so I opened the case and pointed a small room fan into it at an angle, now it idles under 50C.
>>342493870
ofc not
My case, despite being somewhat cheap, still has some nice airflow, so I'm ok even during really hot days, like today.
>>342480678
Yeah. Just got a GTX1080. Shit is cash.
>>342494425
shit is overpriced
>>342494104
It's my first laptop, so I have no idea what's acceptable.
Never get any red numbers on my desktop, so I thought that might be when the temperature gets bad.

>>342497495
I do have one back from my first laptop, but now its kinda broken/unreliable so im pretty much screwed.
What are the temps it should actually be at?
OK, this thread gave me one nice little idea, my pc is really dusty, GPU & CPU.
Im actually OK with this because my CPU works at 4.8gHz
Am gonna dust it of to see if there is any difference.
(this temps are results of running in 5 minutes of Novigrad,all maxed+ fucking nvidia hairworks, purely enough)
Will post in 8 minutes(3 minutes for cleaning+ 5 minutes running around Novigrad) if thread is still alive..
>>342497332
also this is while Idle. I´ve almost hit 70°c earlier today ingame.
Looks like I´m ok.... for now
Got a few things running and downloading.
I literally got no difference

>>342498571
Well it´s actually only 1 SSD and one HD for games. The rest are all external hard drives for different purposes.
I have air conditioning so yes I'm fine.
>>342495826
How come your CPU is over a fucking 100 degrees and the rest is still so cool?
>>342495947
Why would it?
>>342499030
Because your CPU is past the boiling point for water.
It's too hot, my CPU shut itself off when it got that hot to avoid parts being damaged.
yeah but it makes some annoying noises while playing overwatch. have to bump up the fan to max
>>342480678
I got an AC and a home built swamp cooler holding line against Texas heat
>>342499239
Do parts actually get damaged at that temperature? Doesn't it have to get much hotter first?
It always feels like these threads are just one big meme with people pretending other anons' houses will burn down when they reach 50 degrees celsius.

Wew lads
>>342485834
Yeah there would be solder puddling in the case at that temp. Tin melts around 450c or so
>>342480678
My PC is doing fine. I'm starting to do worse, sadly AC is not that normal here hence it's quite expensive (both the actual machine and installation and then of course electricity would cost me thousands). Plus I rent an apartment and I never stay in one place for long, so I don't want to install the AC here.
>>342502220
Just get one you stick in the window for 100-200$. They aren't that expensive to run and can be moved/installed relatively easily by yourself, and will more than work for a small apartment.
>>342500015
Yes, your CPU running over 100c is going to cause problems.
Not immediately, but it is 100% reducing the lifespan of the part.
960 is the itx, runs at 60° when playing Witcher 3, funny also how no matter the setting shit always is at 95-99% usage so whatever, I just crank shit up and hope it doesn't go below 40fps
>>342485062
Is your fan on, anon?

I'm not following you.
Do you people not have air conditioners? Crank 'em up for fucks sake.
>>342480678

>>342506342
in the UK, air conditioners were banned like 8 years ago because someone had theirs on too long and too cold and they died of hypothermia
some dumb bloke said "how was I supposed to know that it was too cold?" and they promptly passed a referendum to ban airconditioners
>>342480678
GPU fan magically died on the first day of summer
Just end me now
Overwatch has been burning my shit up (I've had two forced shutdowns due to overheating while playing it) so I started manually controlling my GPU fan to spin at speed 90.
This happened with Diablo 3 at launch also. It burned one of my hard drives up due to a memory leak. It was a pretty widespread problem.
>>342487182
My laptop is so clogged with dust it overheats if I fullscreen YouTube videos, never used it for gaming aside from portal 2 on minimum settings and stuff so undemanding they don't even have requirements.
Anyway I would basically need to separate the screen and keyboard to get at the fan and there's no way I'm risking fucking that up.
I am shirtless and so is my PC.
>>342509617
Once i tried to open up mine to clean it from dust, but that failed and only managed to damage the bolts that keep it shut, so i have to improvise by using the tiny wholes that air passes through, shooting compressed air through them and all.
All I'm doing is watching a youtube video.
I cleaned it out a few weeks ago.
It doesn't actually get much hotter when I game.
I don't know what the fuck is happening.
If you actually play on PC, you need to castrate yourself immediately.
>>342510096

WHAT DO I DO
>>342480678
Yep. The house I'm in has really powerful AC as well as some kind of crazy insulation that's super efficient. I'm good.
>>342514193
Put the kettle on it.
no graphics are the coolest graphics
I got a new heatsink and fans and now my CPU is idling at less than 40C and my GPU hovers around 44C. Feelin' good.
Quick question:
Do laptop coolers actually work? How much can they cool a laptop?
>>342495494
>Thermal paste
>Graphics Card
>>342480678
alive and purring at around 65c under load. to bad im not home to enjoy it.
>>342512635
When's the last time you messed with the heatsink? You may want to remove the thermal paste that's there and apply some more. You may also want to replace the heatsink with something new. They're pretty cheap (15-30 bucks) and are usually much better than stock Intel coolers.
Am I fucked yet?

Idling at about 25°. I'll be firing up RO 2 in a moment, we'll see how that goes.
AC was out Monday and it was 114, I thought my PC was going to grow wings and fly away

>thinks cool air causes cancer
If you arent intelligent enough to build an AC unit from scratch you shouldnt be allowed to post. In a well made AC unit there is no exchange of anything besides temperature. Its all sealed, the air coming out is no more cancerous than what comes out of a fan.

Fucking study some basic physics and biology, you dumb clapburger. If you don't clean that shit on a regular basis or live in some desert where it rains once in ten years you're bound to have all kinds of shit growing in the vents.

Thats why there is a drain on your AC unit. That moisture doesnt stay in there. I know you are too poor to understand and nobody in your village can afford AC, but trust me on this one. My central air unit is probably cleaner than your village hospital.

It's pretty good, definitely much more fun with friends but they don't have matchmaking with friends yet. The only complaint I'd have is that experienced players are matched with new palyers which can ruin it sometimes.
Oh and it's buggy as hell.

Holy shit you're a fucking retard and don't even know how basic physics work on a middle school level. Keep dying of cancer like the fucking subhumans that you are.

My apartment is not that small. I had one of those but they don't really work very well, and I have to open a window (to let the tube out) meaning I let the heat in.
