Colling your CPU the cheap way
Hi all!
I just figured out how to use the sensors and I find my CPU temp to average 48C and going as high as 59C under heavy load. Of course, it's slowing. And that is while I'm still getting 16C during the day (I'm up in Canada, my igloo just finished melting btw..). The days are getting warmer so is my CPU and the damn thing is heating my small badly ventilated room (and the roof of said igloo a month ago..)
I'm looking for a cheap, as in free or almost free (since I'll be living off peanut butter sandwiches for a while), way to cool my PC.
It's an PIII with a slotted CPU and this tiny fan running at 2045 rpm that my sensor, for a reason still unknown, just decided to stop monitoring.
Waiting for your suggestion.
And NO I can't move the PC to a better ventailated room.
