Oh and the compensation is all the young lads with their tops off. Woooof :p:

Hot? no. I'm on one of my periodic work stints in Phoenix Arizona. Try 107 or 112 as it was last weekend. Mind you there isn't exactly a shortage of air conditioning here.
Yet another hot day ahead, any one know if there is any cooler weather on the way? :(
Since the start of June it's been lovely. Long may it continue !
Was at the beach the other day and it's been perfect weather.
I hope it continues into the week.
Well, I'm taking my life into my hands - I'm actually going to take Baby Nug for a walk (:shocked: ) into Cleethorpes this afternoon, so that he can see the beach. It may well kill me, so I'd just like to say thanks for the good times, guys ;) :D :disturbd:

AMD's are meant to tolerate a bit more heat than Intel processors so that's not too bad in this very hot weather. . Just try to not go over 60.
You could always add another fan in your machine.

Not at the moment. I really need to buy one to reduce the temp in here. Just got 2 fans at the moment blowing into the room.
For anyone that is considering a loft conversion, they get blooming hot in the summer.

Take the side off your case dude will maike a huge difference.Then if no better point a small room fan in there that will sort it out.While your in there check for dust build up on cpu heatsink.If you know what your doing remove heatsink clean up carefully cpu and heat sink base and add a pea sized amount of silver based good quality thermal compound. The old thoroughbred chips run rediculasly hot in high latent temperatures as Halcyon said it should be ok but rising and lowering of temps by large amounts regularly reduces the life of materials :)

We had a huge storm yesterday tea time which cleared it a little, its already getting very warm here.
Right now around 7.30am is the best time. It's still cool.
In a few hours no doubt it will be boiling hot again....though there seem to be a few more clouds in the sky so hopefully a little less hot sunshine.

My room is half underground as the house is on a slope so the bed side of the room wall is technically below ground. I think that helpskeep things cooler.
Have a netting on the windows to stop the nasty stuff getting in and this keeps it at a comfortable 21-24. Under normal conditions its 18-21 which is fine for me.

I'm guessing your thermometer is in direct sunlight ... if it was really that hot, you wouldn't even have been able to go in there to read the temperature. Death Valley, California, is the hottest place on Earth and the hottest it has ever been is 56.7. ;)

To get a meaningful reading from your thermometer you need to put it somewhere the sun cannot shine directly onto it.

Never been in a sauna, Chris? They are typically 90 - 110C.
I can quite believe a conservatory can reach 57C. It's the greenhouse effect. Ours gets hot enough to melt candles.
There is no chance I'd go in a sauna. Sounds like a nightmare at that temperature.
I've seen conservatory's and enterance porch's with melted candles in during the summer months, one place there was a big candle and wasnt a big ledge and it had done down the windows due to it melting so much.
As my room get's really too warm in this weather, I find that leaving a bowl of water out keeps the air fresh and moist. Otherwise it get's way too dry.
It's easier to sleep when the air is not overly dry.

a sauna is the place for experimenting with the relationship between heat & humidity.
an hot dry sauna doesn't feel so hot while you can sweat & the sweat can evaporate, which cools you...
an hot wet sauna feels hot, because even if you do sweat, it cannot evaporate & doesn't cool you...

A tip for those who are at home and have the sun beating through a window and making ing flaming hot.
Go to a shop like halfords and buy some of the sun blinds for card (the ones with the foil on) and stick in the offendind window.
Yeah I do that. Always keep the blinds down when its too sunny.
Otherwise it get's way too hot and I dont want the sun rays beaming down on my PC either as seeing the screen is impossible.

Some of the smells on Grimsby Docks, where I work, have been 'interesting' , lately, with the warm weather :)
- especially cycling past the wastewater pumping station ;)
Have they still got the fishmeal skips just before the flyover :sick:
The smell has been getting worse recently, its all day now and starts first thing in the morning, all you want.
Me wonderes why I ever took this job on right next to a fish meal and sewerage palce!

Death Valley, California, is the hottest place on Earth and the hottest it has ever been is 56.7. ;)
Having just returned from there I can confirm it does get warm (114degF when I passed through !!:shocked: ). So I'm well acclimatised :cool:
Spent 7 days in and around Las Vegas where it was regularly 105degF. :erm:
Yeah, but in places like Vegas, it's a dry heat, so not as uncomfortable..

Yeah thanks you have :p:
Not that hot here in Belfast, about 20, which is good as I can't stand the heat.
I would much rather be in a country where the temp is -30 than 30.
My main problem is that I have problems regulating my body heat and it is a nightmare in summer at least in winter I can turn the heating up and put more clothes on

and in the summer you can wear as little as possible ;)
Believe me that is not a good idea, I couldn't be that cruel to my family ;)
