I love AMD

Fantastic read, almost as good as the thread about a chap convinced his heat sink was glowing red due to his cpu running to hot!

Priceless

I came home a few days ago, turned on my laptop and

My room was absolutely freezing and this is a t2300 with speedstep on.

And yes, its reading it correctly.

This thread is hilarious.

There is a little bit of AMD vs Intel fanboyism.
There is a little bit of ignorance (fridges without fans, evaporation, windchill, fans for freezing water).
There is sooooo much testosterone.

Personally, I agree with the OP - If you're not overclocking, buy a cheap AMD rig.

People do get ill in the summer

8 pages on this? :confused:

Only on ocuk tbh.

Had a good laugh while reading it though.

I love AMD, so much so that I just bought a better clocking Opty 175 to replace my 170

That's taking what I said too literally...

You rarely see an entire room of people sneezing and coughing their lungs out during the summer unless it's a room of hay fever sufferers.

The first law of thermodynamics, you can't win!

I think it was the second one, that you cannot turn all energy into work, you need simply to lose some (dissipate it as heat and increase entropy)

The Second law of thermodynamics, you cant even break-even

What about at zero kelvin?

You cant get all the energy back, hence you don't break even

What about it? You cannot get there either (The Third Law states that)

You might be within a micro system i think.

a big thanks, I was halfway thought writing a 20 page post on entropy and enthalpy and the Carnot Cycle. ow thank you

Haha, just send me to wikipedia instead.

Does everest ultimate read from the cpu sensor or mobo? i got it on right now. Just wana know if its definitly accurate.

I tried it once and it seemed OK to me. I have not used it since though.
