What time of year is Happy time of year for your computer?

KemoKa

When is the time of year you most enjoy using your computer? It could be for some online gaming event or perhaps it's when you clear the dust out of your machine.

For me, my laptop is happiest during the winter, when in our poorly insulated house in the freezing temperatures it can barbecue itself to its architecture's content without me having to worry about it overheating.

 

GO FORTH!

Fall and winter for me too.  For some reason, even though my computer runs very cool and quiet it heats up my room like crazy.  So Summer sucks.

Winter i guess. That's when i get my tax returns and it has a shot of getting an upgrade.

Summer usually, because I have the time to relax and use it more often, although the winter holidays are similar, but I often have some work to do then anyway, so I don't use it as much then.

I would say steam sales, but those happen every week now since valve opened that can.

 

probably winter, and late spring when tax return happens and something gets upgraded.

Winter with heavy snow. That's when it runs cool as I keep the room temp at about 21-22c and I get to spend most of my free time on the Pc. :D

Whenever I get a tax return. Can't wait till I can hopefully get a new monitor, and hopefully make my fans all matching, this whole, 2 led purples, 2 led whites, 3 noctuas, and a single non led orange blade theme is kinda ghetto looking

I don't have an AC and Trinidad and Tobago doesn't get four seasons; we're just 32-36 deg C year-round with 70-100% humidity usually.

 

My PC is happiest when I find a good 3D vision ready game so I can use my glasses for like a day.

I have finally moved to a desktop. Also my guides are outdated as hell.
