but is it prime stable?

[BicycleMafioso]

Can it run minesweeper at 15+ fps?

I used Intel Burn Test.

14.60FPS!

[DeltrusDisc]

8+ hours of Prime95 27.7.1 or more recent is a better check for stability, to be fair, but good job!

[Evil Inside]

Pff, we had 27°C today. Way too hot.
And that is the summer heat. And I can barely sleep at all in it.

Lol man oh man you'd love the aussie summer.

[DeltrusDisc]

I find I only know Celsius for computers... but not normal weather temps. Looks it up.

80.6 F? Come now, tetris. It was 95 F+ all day today and humid as shit! XD

We are under a heat advisory the next few days too with, what looks to be, rather severe storms Friday night.

Finally the heat+humidity should culminate in entertainment!

That is so bizarre.

Why can't you 'Muricans just be normal o_O

If that were the case, what would we have to complain about?

perhaps messed up hardware pricing US compared to EU? (dollars and euro being converted 1:1 pretty much -_- )

[Asera]

All I see from Deltrus is QQQQQQQQQ.

Get an AC you bum.

At least it's been relatively nice here. About the same temps as Tetris is complaining about (25-29 Celcius), just with a bit of humidity. I have to say though the humidity here is nowhere near as bad as the sticky Atlantic coast humidity.

I have an AC, but ACs don't work outside. lol

Is it bizarre though?

I literally grew up on F. It would be very hard to get used to something else.

I know 32 is water-freezing aka snow, 0 is death, 100 is stupid heat, 60s and 70s are normal tolerable weather.

Celsius was the first form I learned about when starting to monitor computer temps... I began learning that up to 60s is okay, but still rather hot, but 90+ is no bueno.

@Methanar, not going to jinx myself, but Lake Michigan is pretty good about defending my area from tornados fully forming, but a couple counties down south or west of here and yes, there likely will be some.

Granted the heat isn't really going to go away on Friday, so somehow I don't foresee a tornado, those are usually associated with massive temperature changes, not going from 95 to 90. :P

Sunday is supposed to be 75 though! ^_^

Generally idle running temperatures of a CPU are approaching uncomfortable for outside heat. Full load temps are usually not seen anywhere except the Saudi desert.

50-60: Death
40-50: Almost death, usually rated humidity levels for southern states
30-40: Considered "hot" by most of North America, normal summer temperatures. Some areas it's normal humidity levels.
20-30: Generally the comfortable range.
10-20: Brisk to comfortable, lower range usually requires a sweater or jacket.
0-10: Cool, cold. Really awful range for rain.
-10-0: Cold. Uncomfortable due to below freezing point of water, which our bodies are mostly composed of (that's why C makes far more sense for weather, IMO)
-20--10: Bitter cold, but tolerable. Average winter temperature for the north eastern seaboard. Considered Not bad in central North America.
-30--20: Really cold, but average for central NA in the winter.
-39--30: Dangerously cold, severe wind chill levels in most of NA. Probably just considered fucking cold in the central.
-40: Celcius and Fahrenheit crossover.


Oh, for Sweden:

-25: Normal.
+25: "Hot".

[BicycleMafioso]

-25: Normal.
+25: "Hot".

Don't be silly! +25 is sauna.

[Asera]

"Sauna".

Also, you were right. The BitFenix Prodigy sucks. Sort of. I miss having a real sound card.

[BicycleMafioso]

They are releasing an mATX-version. Same outer dimensions, but with being able to fit a mobo with four expansionslots (and in a different orientation)

[Majesticii]

So do i, i need to look for a new one since the old was PCI.

That'll be interesting,

I'm looking at just dropping this and going for a Define Mini or something.

The imperial system really confuses me. Why cant it just be normal, dd/mm/yy makes so much more sense than mm/dd/yy, and the distance measurements particularly screw with me, just make it all nice and linear lol. As for celsius it's easy, temps in the minus are fucking cold, 0-10 is cold, 10-20 is tolerable, 20-30 is the normal, 30-40 is fucking hot, 50-60 is ouchy very burning.
