Laptop warming up room

NeatSquidYT

Hi,

My mum is making fun out of me currently for saying that I'm hot due to my laptop heating up my corner of the room. My laptop reaches 95 degrees Celsius, and she still says that. Tell her she's wrong please.

She's wrong.

She won't listen to us

My statement achieved nothing

 

(And clean your laptop if it's getting to 95 degrees C)

Do you live in a, let's say, shipping container, by any chance? Perhaps an igloo?

tbh she may be right. One of my siblings spends most of the day on a netbook and her room is noticeably warmer than the rest of the house.

Wait, so you are saying she believes you have some sort of health issue and that you are heating up the room?

Well, I've heard that the human body releases about 80W of heat while "operating", so as hilarious as this is, she's not entirely wrong; you are probably contributing close to 50% of the "problem" :P

Hi

My laptop reaches 95 degrees, and my mum is making fun out of my currently for saying that my laptop heats up my corner of the room, saying that it's stupid. It has an exhaust that hurts the hand due to how hot it is. Please tell her that she's wrong.

 

That's pretty normal for a laptop - I get 105 (CPU-killing) if I play for more than 5 hours. So I don't. So your mother says it's stupid to heat up your laptop like that? or what? not sure I understand

umm.... no... I was wearing a dressing gown whilst typing and started sweating whilst my laptop was on, but beforehand I was fine. I'm not saying I have a health issue.

My laptop's CPU sat in the low 90s even when it was brand new, and didn't thermal throttle at all.  Not all laptops are designed with super cooling... some are thin :)

EDIT: I mean she's saying I'm stupid because I said that it warms me up.

do like me in the winter, use F@H to heat the house

I'm not saying you do either.  I was asking if that's what she thinks, since the OP was a little unclear to me

well, especially since you're in a dressing gown, you probably just heat yourself up, it's an insulating layer, and the laptop wont be helping.

Well at least your not watercoooling, even more heat output to the room.  :D

how exactly?  Components set up a certain will way release X watts of heat regardless.  Whether this is effectively and quickly moved away from them and into the room or not makes no difference in the long run - the heat will get into the room, because if it doesn't, the parts will continue to heat up and melt

If you're complaining to her about it then yeah that's stupid but otherwise why does she even care?

Luckily my mother is a physics teacher. Can you try to explain her how heat dissipation actually works?

My old Pentium 4 laptop-which had the CPU running at 3.9GHz-managed to warm up my entire room so......

It's more efficient in the radiator's it's ability to transfer the heat to the air due to the larger surface area so just heats up the surrounding air faster.

I wasn't complaining, it was a passing comment. She then proceeded to mock me.

Sound cooler than Post Office Worker. I will try, if she says it to me again, I will get out paper and explain the kinetic theory to her.
