A/C or watercool everything... including hard drives ^^

water cooling is only as good as the ambient temperatures. high ambient

temps certainly means higher device temperatures. water cooling does

not replace better ambient temperatures. high ambient narrow the delta

temperatures from idle to load significantly.

 

undervolting the CPU/GPU really helps to conserve as much heat generated

the the processors under load.

I've water cooled most of my rigs now to deal with the heat, but there are simpler ways to do it.

 

Keep the blinds and curtains closed during the day - helps keep the internal temps down.

Pending to which part of Australia you've moved to, running AC on 20-26 degrees C on cooling will help a lot.

Have a look in the roof space, see if there is insulation in there. If not, see if you can get something done about it.

 

See how you go with those, and welcome to the land of Aus!!

If you have the money and space, you can do phase change cooling There is a cheaper way to do this by using peltiers but i find that to be short term rather than long term. Check this fire hazard about it....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1EWJf0VlFkk you can't say home insurance will be ok with this. :lol:

as long as your using an aftermarket cooler or watercooled you'll be fine.  My room becomes an oven and with that sun roof so yeah
