Because my dont! I just red the thread 'max/sqfe water temp?' and he comments on the temps changing in summer. Mine never have because i always keep my room where my comp is kept (and my whole house) at around 20 deegrees. Do you find you temps differ?
 
My temperatures differ on a daily level along with the ambient room temperature. I have seen my idle temperatures display a delta of 8-10 degrees depending on the heating/air flow in my room and the weather.
 
If your house has climate control (in every room, not just the room with the thermostat) rather than simple central heating and airconditioning then yes your core temps will be the same year around, for everyone else it will vary according to ambient temperature.
 
My current room gets affected greatly! But the room my PC is currently in is on the small side (2m x 2m...). Last summer I was sitting here baking in above 30C during night time due to gpus running non-stop for 15 hours.

I usually downclock in summer.
 
What was the point of this thread!!!!

Your own common sense tell's you the summer and winter period's affect your PC temp's-

Summer - Air temp's get warmer.

Winter - Air temp's get cooler.

You don't need to be a brain surgeon to figure it out!!!!!

Try switching your climate control off to see if it does for a few week's and let us know your result's!!!!!!!!!!!!

We could hazard a guess what they would be.
 
Used to use a Zalman Reserator to cool a dual core + 4850.

I'd keep my feet warm on it in winter. Was too hot to put bare feet on at the hight of summer.
