|
 |
Hi guys,
it's winter time and really, really cold in Germany.
Usually the PC is warming up the room a little bit, but recently since I've upgrade a few parts it's not getting warm enough to make a difference to the rest of the room.
I leave some game running in the background, but still GPU is dancing between 50-60°C and CPU between 30-50°C. I am literally freezing to death.
Is there a programm where I can fix the GPU fan to a certain RPM rate, such that the GPU is getting a little hotter?
I think everything below 80°C should be safe.
On idle currenlty I have only 32°C on GPU and 29°C on CPU. That's too cold.

Provided you are not bragging with your post: try mining cryptocurency. You'll earn money AND be warm at the same time.

Get a small electric bar fire to fit inside the case, does wonders for warming things up a tad, albeit a little pricey power wise. Just make sure to route cabling away from the front of fire, as you don't want them melting and shorting out.

If your being honest, buy a space heater with the money your saving on wattage on the new PC...
You would save money in the long run as one is made to be efficient to produce heat per watt, the other is horribly ineffective and designed to minimize heat per watt.
Using your PC to keep your room warm, is as effective money wise and using a can of Freon to spray on your beer to keep it cool.

Buy an expensive AIO and put the radiatior on the front as intake.
"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."

hes either memeing or he has a weird central heating system that ppl use in parts of germany (difficult to explain)
where you have to share the cost with all the apartments in your building and your share gets higher and higher the more you use it. (you arent only paying the amount you use if you use it:) )
Thats why he might look into weird alternatives i guess :O
