Ah, well, it's not hot enough yet to warrant that, but I do turn on one or more fans most days

2 computers, two people, and a cat disagree. Hottest room in the house.

Although if the room was bigger, it wouldn't be so bad.

Wow, that's with my rig down a decent chunk of the day... (Heat issues.)

Makes me feel like I shouldn't even bother crunching.

Everything counts. Its not a race. Your contribution is just as important as everyone else. Everyone has to start somewhere. I started out crunching 2 old laptops in the begining. You will get there, we will help you. Your very important to this team, dont ever think different.

Your contribution is very important, every little bit counts! (The only WCG rig I had for the first ~1.5 months was a Pentium M laptop that did ~165 PPD)

I did end up getting it installed, it's running at 80% but at least that's a lot better than nothing. I'm not sure how much it's going to be on, but again, anything is better than nothing

Maybe i don't need a new cooler to overclock my cpu.
I just took my pc apart, and rebuilt it, with cable managment and adding more exhaust/intake fans in mind. I also changed the stock thermal paste to some artic silver and im really amazed by the outcome.

before my efforts, my cpu would hit 60c on idle, and around 75-80 on load, Now im getting 39c idle and 59c on full load! And the temps should come down more because the thermal paste needs time to settle in doesn't it?

Well with that, i can start to overclock my cpu to get more numbers for the team!

Hey glad your temps dropped a lot, however I wouldn't go higher. 55 is safe max for me, 62 is max recomended by AMD.

Nice work. CP has it right on the temps. If you can keep it under 55c or so you will be golden. I just picked up an arm full of little 120v fans to help with my temps. Little 9.99 fans made a huge difference with my load temps. Ive got them all over the place in my room moving air. Dropped my temps 3 or 4c. The test will be this afternoon. We are going to see 80 degrees + today.

I'd stay where you are in terms of OCing, I really don't like to see over 55c on my Phenom II X4. If you pick up a Scythe Mugen 2, Xigmatek HDT-S1283 or a Cooler Master Hyper 212+ you'd be able to OC a decent amount more
