ebarone Posted May 9, 2010 Posted May 9, 2010 It is possible to have a CPU under room temperature with air cooling. If air moves fast, it is also cooler. Lets say you are out on a warm summer day and it windy as hell. If the air temperature is 30 degrees, then the wind can be alot cooler than that. Or if you are driving a car and the windows are open, it will be cooler than the air temperature that day thanks to the air moving quite fast. So, it is possible for the CPU to be cooler than the ambient temperature, but at load that is really hard to accomplish. A massive swing and a massive miss. Take it from me, the guy with the degree in physics, that that is not true at all. What you feel and what you measure are completely different, and everything The Smith said was dead on. Movement doesnt make things colder... it just helps with the speed of the heat transfer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
