The Greatest System Cooling Tool EVER

[lecter]

Is infact a straw.

I just cleaned my cpu of dust and other associated crap by blowing into a straw (being carefull not to spit everywhere).

before
idle = 42deg load = 57deg
after
idle = 33deg load = 43deg

Dust, oil, etc particles all tend to act as insulation thus keeping heat in which generates temperatures higher than a clean system.....hence keeping a clean system is fairly important, I use compressed air every so often.

Embattle while your in the mood for paraphrasing me and being a pedantic twat. I suggest you read the laws of physics. (fighting words)

Dust, oil, etc particles all tend to act as insulation thus generating extra heat

Its funny i thought my cpu created the same amount of heat regardless of the dust on top of it

Heat - transfer of energy.
Temperature - the average kinetic energy of the particles in a sample of matter.

You knew exactly what I meant and because you're a pedantic twat I've changed it for your so called BSc (hons) Physics brain

Lecter is indeed a pedantic twat.

So I shall give him a pedantic twak.

You have a BSc honours in Physics and you aren't aware of the difference between a definition, what you've posted, and a law? How much you pay for that 'degree'? Get it off a guy down the market?

So its not the pixies who breath harder whilst having to wipe the dust off their shoes, and I always wondered how they got thru the fan blades ?

 

[Xtro]

never cleaned my pc - probably why its fucked.

 

[FatBusinessman]

My PC has Windows XP - I know exactly why it's fucked

[FatBusinessman]

Ah, but maybe we secretly are DAoC players...

Imply that again and I'll have to cut you.

I did well resisting for this long.

WOOHOO!!

I was poking around inside my PC and thought "what the hell" and took the fan off the CPU heatsink. Blew off the dust. Closed it back up again.

It's shaved around 7 degrees of my CP temp.

Happy Kenny.
