My room is freezing regardless of the fact that I have 3 monitors, 2 computers, a home theater system, a laptop , lights, all that. It feels to be mid 60's. How do you heat your room when its 4 degrees F out?

Massive blanket. 3 layers of clothes and warm headphones. 

Life is pain. Anyone who says any different is either selling something or the government.

290X mining altcoins at 100% load. 

But seriously, a gas heater. It's an old one. Like, 1950's old. But it still works. Keeps it around 75-80F in here. I open doors when it gets too warm and bundle up with a blanket when it gets too cold otherwise.

I live in Canada and it has been below -40 here for 4 weeks. We use a normal furnace because nothing else could do the job.

Yeah I can't get a space heater in here. My breaker probably couldn't take it. Running a heat gun brings my voltage from 115v down to 106v.

I live in Canada and I can tell you, nothing better than an AMD card to heat up your room ;)

I remember my old AMD laptop (single core POS) used to get so hot under load.... even idle.

This was back when Ati was making graphics cards.
