    I can really tell its winter, I mean, look at my CPU temps.
    I think I'm going to have to start running ORTHOS to stress it to get my room a bit warmer, its freezing!

    mine registered 17c when i booted this morning, getting your cpu up to temp is easy, getting it to heat the room is another thing,.

    hell i just fired up crysis for 20 mins this morning and i was cooking bacon :D

    Oh yea, you should see the rain I'm getting here too, it's ridiculous, the highway looked like it was a bunch of amphibian cars sailing down the road, people spinning out left and right because they think it's fine to drive you giant puddles (more like lakes) at 75mph.

    Bleh.. I want snow :(

    Still bloody freezing in my room.

    Stupid, as my rooms usually the hottest in the house, and whenever I want it cool, its always hot.

    Not had any snow today, too cold. Had a little yesterday, not much though. Anyway, this is digressing into what should be in the snow topic, :D

    46c here, but I don't leave my window open, if I did I'd be running at -18c

    This room is noticable warmer than the rest of the house. And the bit just behind the tower is a good 35C. Great when I get home with frozen toes. Boots off, stick feet behind the computer for a few minutes. Frostbite averted.

    I keep meaning to take my computer out to the garage for an OC session when it hits -30C. Thus far I've been too lazy though.

    I stopped overclocking over the summer but I might pick it up again.

    That said I dunno if I can be bothered because the benefits would be minimal and I'd have to deal with a whole plethora of other things.

    It'd be nice to see if I can get a decent 3.0Ghz out of my 9850BE again since I've had trouble getting it past 2.8Ghz recently.

    my laptop has horrible thermal management:

    GPU: 50*C
    Core1: 50*C
    Core2: 50*C

    And it's just running Vista with a browser, nothing else.

    Room temp is below 20*C

    Been somewhere around -15 - -20 C here for the last week. Anyway I keep my computers indoors so it doesn't have any effect on the temperatures. Suppose it's some weird tradition elsewhere to keep 'em outdoors in wintertime ;)

    God bless insulation.
