Default Re: a pc question

I'm sure if you have a manual it'll likely say something like keep it between 55-80 or so for a desktop, little wider range for a notebook.

BUT...just make sure you're circulating the air around the cpu and graphics card and you'll be fine for as much heat as you're likely to tolerate unless you take it to a sauna with you.

For a desktop, make sure it is positioned where it has room to breath, keep the dust bunnies out, etc. For a notebook, consider sitting it on a chiller, they're cheap.

You'll see blue screen of deaths coming out of nowhere if it gets hot long before it does any real damage.
