I've got a A-XP 2600+ at stock speeds. Yes, stock. Why? Because of my ambient temp. This bad boy is sitting next to 4x 5400RPM 40GB HDDs. Which are bringing my ambient case temp up to 81C normally. (I've registered it as high as 90C!)

And you know what? It's stable. And it heats my bedroom for me. I have a burn mark on one of my fingers from picking up one of those HDDs.

How odd that I should be proud of this.

If you in the south you got yourself a grill there. Steaks anyone? :p
