| Running F@H full out can test your cooling skills.  You can set the cpu to a lower usage (it's 100% by default), and that will help. You can also just run F@H during the cooler parts of the day. Backing down an oc will help. You can do what I do and take the sides off the towers and point a fan on them. Even so, during summer I'll probably have to shut down several towers.

| Yeah, even though my machines are pretty well cooled @ 43 and 44C, it gets a might warm in this little room with them going 24/7.

| I know that feeling.  I have 8 towers running in this small room (8x10). All AMD's. It gets pretty steamy in here, and I go all all winter with the window partialy open and a fan pulling in cold air.For me it's a small price to pay for a hobby I love.

| ...try what I do _phoenix_...get yourself a window fan. Mine has been running for close to three years... I even have hoses running through it going outside to put the radiators for my water cooling.

Yeah, that's what I have. A window fan. I'm thinking I need a window AC though.

| hmmm...that many in one room... Some creative exhaust ducting may be in order - you could build a box around the back of the whole lot and duct it out that window...no more heat in that room. I've noodled with this kind of stuff for a while...those that know me get a little chuckle out of it...

| Only problem here is the heat in Texas is so strong, it will over power the effort to put it out the window...

| That's too bad...I broke down and put them all on a table in front of the double window - they blow right at the exhaust fan. Of course most of the cpu heat is already outside with the radiators, but with summer heat coming I may have to come up with something to keep my overclocks...  Maybe set them over the air conditioning duct...
