ya, everyones temps are better in the summer, but not as much mine as some people, living in san diego it dont get too cold. it was in the 80's last week

You could keep a more stable temp by controlling a pelt's voltage to keep the right temps. Then you don't have the possibility of your OC speed being altered with the seasons.

I live in michigan! We have such a range in temp here I dont know what i'm going to do when it gets warm. Acutally just now I opened all my windows to cool off my room and its not cooling! Its to warm outside (well i like it but my computer doesn't) The worst is those 80*F days where my computer room is 79*F so opening a window wouldn't help but i could cook my lunch ontop of my computer. Any ideas how to cool my computer better in the summer. We have ac but its like $2 a day to turn on so we only use it if its really hot. I have a hsf setup (no fancy watercooling or pelt stuff.) Any ideas on how to give my computer cool air would be much appreciated. Also, I was wondering if a mini-frige would be able to produce cool air fast enought to neutralize the heat that a 1.4 t-bird creates. Thanks in advance for helping.

I don't think a minifridge would cool it well enough. If you have to decrease your OC a lot and underclock it if it has stability problems. I did this when I was compressing my own music 12 horus a day in 90F+ weather on an Athlon 1333. Cooling it with a Volcano 2 hsf, so that didn't help. Had to underclock it to keep it stable.
