Good Temps

[Kunal]

well ive put my system on my window sill (the sills plenty big) and the windows open. my temps are:

20c cpu
16c mainboard
14c hdd

(now i best turn the heating up&#33

Edit: thats just after leaving it for 20mins - it would probaly go down more if i left it for longer

Ooops! The PC just fell out the window. "CRASH!"

[abu_has_the_power]

well. my windows are all closed when i do this. i never really tried putting my pc next to an open window yet. maybe i should. well, rite now, it's 16C. I just turned it on. my room is around 26 C -27C

i really don't know y it's so cold. the hd cooler said it'll cool 10C or something. guess Ultra doesn't lie bout these things

You're still trying to say that the "Ultra" cooler is doing this?

Get real.

Why don't you post a link to the "Ultra" cooler?

If it doesn't work with refrigeration then it can't be cooler than ambient.

See. No refrigerant there, so it&#39;s impossible.

Think of it this way, abu. If your hard drive was actually colder than the air around it then the fans would blow that same warmer air onto the drive and warm it up. This cannot be the case.

that&#39;s wat i&#39;m confused about too. but it did say 70% cooler or something. well, i&#39;m happy. rite now, the temp is:
