Computer Heating Up My Whole Room

[JoshK]

I have a Core i5 4670k overclocked to 4.5 GHz and a GTX 650ti Boost. My i5 is cooled with the h100i. With my computer off my room is about 72 degrees but with it on its 80 degrees. Opening a window and turning on the AC had no effect. Of I lower my overlock will my room be cooler? I first noticed it was hotter when I started overclcocking. Thanks!

Yeah that's why you have that fancy cooler after all, to vent to heat produced by an overclock.

[Oshino Shinobu]

If you turn down the overclock, it'll cool down the CPU, which will then cool down the room. The heat from your PC has to go somewhere, and if it's near you, you're going to feel it pretty quick.

Man same things happening to my room but my CPU is not overlocked i7 3770k. I think its my 670 sli, its brutal

Why would you turn on your AC & open your window? All that cool air is just rushing out the window due to positive pressure in your house.

 

I have a floor fan I use to circulate the air in my room. It really helps.

wow ! 80C° ! wow !  how did you live with it all this time ?!

any way it's 4.5Ghz and your lucky it's a liquid cooler, if you where air cooling, you're cooked ! just turn the OC down, to 4.0~3.8Ghz i say and get your self a goddamn air conditioner; not only your health, but also your Rig is in Risk

I have an h100i and no overclock

 

CPU gets between 30 and 35 degrees tops

Bitch please...

 

My room gets up to about 95*F... on a good day.

he's talking about his room temp men

Yeah I  know... I was just trying to say that running without an OC the PC will run much cooler and not spit out as much heat into the room

In all seriousness though, thats just one of the side effects that come with owning a high-end PC. Consider yourself lucky, my R9 290 + 4679k will heat up my room to almost unbearable levels after just 20 minutes of gaming.

This really made me LoL and made everyone at work look at me.

 

Speaking from my personal experience. Pre overclocking during summer ambiant temps my room was around 75-80 F. (don't run AC unless needed & I like it hot) CPU would get up to 55 C. Now post OC during summer months my room gets up to 82-86 F and CPU gets to 59-61 C. A simple floor fan made the room tollerable for me.

i know i know, but still, 80C° !! it's a goddamn oven, so i say some thing is wrong with the Breathing system of his room, i mean come on 80 ! so i say the solution is save some money and get an air conditioner mate that way you'll keep rinning on your OC, more Cool air for your system to run cooler, and believe me you'll be chilling dude B)

well, i don't skimp on nothing, since my father is paying the bill , air conditioner all summer long accept at night, things chill a little, so my room never goes above 30 and my CPU with a Dark Rock 2 never passes the 50C° mark

The down side of being an adult and paying for your own utilities. Bright side with no kids eating up all my paychecks I can save up fast for major purchases. Hehe.

My CPU ran hotter than that yesterday so does that make my room the hottest place on earth?

I moved out from my parents and bought my own place almost 2 years ago. Its a freeing experience. Also good luck getting girls to come over to your parents when you're in your early 20's. But I'm getting off topic. Noticed OP hasn't came back since he/she started this thread.

yeah OP went way ! i know how exiting of an experience it is, and about the last bit a bout girls, my religion doesn't allow to do that like, "hit it and quit it" with a girl, every thing is almost allowed but from that ! and you're right, we're dragging this thread off topic
