I restarted my SMP client since it's been cool in the midwest lately and let my computer run all night. When I woke up my room was pretty warm and I burnt myself by touching my computer case for a couple of seconds. The side of my leg was bright red for a couple of hours! Basically the air inside of my case was warm enough to increase the temperature of my steel case enough to burn me (it was uniformly warm everywhere on the case, including the HDD bay).
Just wanted to share that inadequate cooling is not only harmful to your components, but also your health.
