Okay, this thread is about to restart.

My room temp reaches 28C now (4:10 pm), and the Prescott is sitting less than 12 inches from me.

haha, room temp today here was only 16°c or so. There was a lot of wind in the right direction .
Spent some time on overclocking and broke my previous 3DM01 record by 400 point (at lower cpu/graka/mem clock timing and a 9°c hotter ambient temp).

Quite happy with it, broke the 15k, good enough for me.

Have to run some temp tests earlier today when weather is damp and hot ....... did not turn the A/C on the PC room reached 30° C near the window. 4 systems showing >35° C system temps. No fan in the room, not PC fan mind you, so there was hardly any air movement in the room.

This changes everything whether W/C or simple air cooling.

Purpose of the test - to reinforce the following;

1) The good advise of turning down FSB 10 - 25 mhz from maximum OC on Prcocessor + dropping 0.25 Volt from max setting at 20-24°C room temp. When room temp >30° C, the system will still remain stable.

2) Power supply voltage drop - oh man, do they dropped at >30° room temp.

3) Working around computers at 30°C room temp is not only unhealthy, your dog won't even stay with you.

The weather sucks here. :grum:
On the radio they said it was going to freeze over night (on the ground).
