gaming in summer is painHow do you cope anon?
just sit there with a swamp ass for an entire day
why dont yuros have air conditioningwhy dont yuros build air cooling infrastructure
>>741326695but we're in winter now
>>741326695I live in a civilized society that lets me keep my domicile at a comfy 70F year round.
>>741326890they are retarded
>>741326890too busy.../ changing theyre gender LOL
>>741326795>>741326890why dont euros just get an a/c for the window? it seems really simple
>>741326986>theyre
>>741327021banned in a lot of places, not eco friendly lel
>>741326890>>741326952>>741327021>Americans make AC use 1/5 of their electric bill>Make the planet hotter for everyone else in doing so>"WOAW WHY NO USE AC?!"We never had a reason to before you lot decided you had to live in the dessert in comfort 40 years ago for some inexplicable reason
>>741326695My new oled monitor gets hotter than my tower.Im so fucking dead
easy :^)
>>741326695more water
>>741327103We wouldn't have a power problem if you retards didn't decide that nuclear power was uncool. but nooo, molten salt reactors being several orders of magnitude more efficient than coal is too scary for big oil.
>>741326695Play less demanding games.
>>741326795I am sure a typical briton could get their hands on one of these without too much hassle. It's got to be like an honor thing where their mates would razz them for it. Just invite them to watch the footie at your place after setting it up and they'll all have one within the week
>>741326695I have airconditioing and the vaguely legal fat ass jeeta daughter of my next door neighbors sucking my dick. I'm good.
>>741327224the problem with nuclear power is that when things go wrong things go really fucking wrongno matter how safe you say it is, people are going to bring up stuff like japan dumping a bunch of irradiated shit in the ocean after one of their plants went sideways
trying out comfyui instead of gamingsucks that the entire community is just dudes who want to make their own ai whores so it's hard to find decent guides
This is a very mild summerGod is trying to clown on the climate tards who think 400ppm CO2 in the air is relevant compared to infinitely stronger greenhouse gas called water vapor, and uncontrollable solar changes the sun happens to want to do.They think in the past the Earth was 9000ppm CO2 and I don't think dinosaurs were driving carsWrong prediction after wrong prediction
>>741327374Coal produces more radiation than nuclear

>>741326890Because AC uses electricity and electricity means burning coal or using nuclear power.There's basically no coal in Europe so all of the coal they burn has to be imported from countries that can gouge the EU because they know that the EU needs it and can't afford to walk away.Nuclear is a similar issue, except instead of being spread all across the world in small pockets sold my weak economies without leverage, all of the world's Uranium is monopolized by 3 markets and everyone else has to suck their cock for it.Most of Europe doesn't have enough major waterfalls or massive rivers for Hydro to make up the deficit, so all of their energy comes from expensive imported fuel. This makes power expensive, which makes power-intensive things like AC unaffordable for the average household and dangerous for energy-intensive companies (like steel refineries) that have to bid against the collective buying power of the consumer economy for a limited power capacity in an over-strained and underfueled grid.So basically their governments conspired to stigmatize high-energy consumer practices like AC under the guise of "green initiatives" in order to free up more of the summer power supply for the industry's that keep their economy running.North America doesn't share this issue because the Canadian Shield generates functionally infinite hydro power which fuels the grid for half of the continent for free.
>>741327928>There's basically no coal in Europethere's tons of coal in EuropeGermany has tons of coal and is burning lots of it every year since it started closing down nuclear plantsholy shit, americans really are retarded
>>741327103>Make the planet hotter for everyone else in doing soNo, that's not why the planet is hotter.
>>741327928in english, doc
>>741327928okay? where's your solar chimneys and all that middle eastern cooling tech you shouldve gotten from conquering those lands?
>>741326695I just play my 3DS and Ally, no need for anything else.
>>741326695By being an American.
>>741327374Even with all the catastrophes with nuclear plants it's still the most efficient, safest and cleanest form of energy production bar none.
>>741326695New windows, roof, and excellent insulation. My AC barely runs to keep the house 70. Also, my game room is half underground.
>>741327520>I don't think dinosaurs were driving cars>He doesn't knowDinos were huge muscle car enthusiasts.
>>741328079Sounds like the Germans are more retarded.
>>741327374right so we should just pump carcinogens into the air 24/7 instead, great plan, so much safer
>>741326695A/C during the day.Whole house fan during the evenings or whenever it cools down to increase efficiency. Also I like hearing the birds and other animals at night.
>>741327520>well things were different hundreds of millions of years ago so we need to keep investing more in coal and oilshalom
Turn on your A/C yuropoor, stop making this thread. This board was made by north Americans for north Americans, nobody can fucking relate to not living in a home without A/C.

>>741327928>Live in burger land>Own my land>do a power survey>Turns out my house on average only pulls about 3000w in the summer, less during the rest of the year>500w panels are around $150-$200 a pop>A nice hybrid inverter with the MPPT built in is $3000>Have enough electrical know how to move all the branches to a sub.Mfw it'll cost me roughly $5000 to cut off the electric jew for good.
>>741328569>live in prime datacenter land>water and power stolen
>>741328638I live in western PA. All hills and it rains enough to meet water needs if I build a system for it.. The data centers aren't getting me.
>>741328638>implying data centers will ever be built. >implying the glowie surveillance and propoganda weapons will go unnoticed by the rest of the worldd. Anon, the jig is up. This is going to collapse venture capital permanently and the economy.
>>741327103ok, but you still havent answered why you dont just get an a/c to stick in your window during the summer
>>741327103My AC is nit "making the planet hotter" you dumb chud
>>741327374TrueImagine a DEI run nuclear plant lmao
>>741328768>Anon, the jig is up. This is going to collapse venture capital permanently and the economy.They seem pretty content on riding this bitch out the end. Gonna make the Great Depression look like a joke when the Wiemar era reaches its peak.
>>741328935>DEI staffing with chink levels of corner cutting across the board
>>741329012they're gonna get bail out
>>741327374>bro irradiated shit gets dumped sometimes>so instead let's use a worse, less efficient source of power and store THAT waste in our lungs!and this is the same person lecturing us about AC
>>741327103>he chooses to be uncomfortable for half the year to save a few kilowatts of power so that third worlders can have 3 more minutes of electricity to burn the toxic plastic coating off of old wires for scrap copper
>>741326695I underclock all my hardware 35-40%.
>Europoors are getting eternally BTFO by Americhads!KNOW YOUR PLACE!4chan is an Americhad website anyway.
>>741329323
>>741327619Stop projecting
>>741326695why don't they build computers that don't need external cooling?
fuck an air conditioner, youre telling me these euro niggas cant even afford a FAN?
>>741326695The first thing I did was stop using over ear headphones, that helped rather a lot more than I was expecting
>>741329525yeah it's called liquid cooling, but all the poor brownoids seethe whenever you mention it.

>>741329096
>>741327374it goes wrong so infrequently that it's by far the safest, most reliable, and overall best form of energy production per megawatthourrenewables might one day, but not yet, shit like coal (which is tragically common) is far ,far, FAR more harmful per megawatthour
going be in the 70s for the next week or two
>>741326695>it's almost 8:00 PM>37°C right now>CPU temps averaging 50°C with only Firefox open>it will be 42°C tomorrow>I've been surviving all of my summers with an almost 10 year old fan that's louder than it should be and that begs for retirement>I'm finally getting my own AC installed tomorrowComfy times ahead, and I'm honestly surprised at how relatively cool my CPU is in this heat with just a normal dual tower air cooler. To be honest, these past few summers haven't been so bad. In 2023 and 2024, the summer heat became so unbearable that me and my sister would end camping in my mom's room which had the newer AC at the time and even sleep there just to be able to sleep properly. Never again.
>>741329323So? If this is an Americhad website, then the least you could do is speak American.
>>741328143Economics.Power is expensive if you have to import fuel. Europe has to import a lot of fuel, which makes power very expensive for themSome forms of fuel are monopolized by unfriendly countries, which makes certain sources of power politically unpalatable even if affordable.AC uses a lot of power, making it very expensive in Europe.
>>741327103>Make the planet hotter for everyone else in doing soAmerica has nuclear power you commie fuck
>>741326695I live in South Carolina where summers often have triple digit temperatures and I have literally never had overheating PC problems.How do you fuck up this hard?
>>741327135That would kill the fridge motor
>>741327374>airplanes sometimes go down so we should only walk forever
>>741327520This is like the street interviews that ask zoomies "why didn't they use laptops in WW2?" and they have absolutely no response
>>741327103>Make the planet hotter for everyone else in doing soSure anon, it's my AC that's making the planet hotter and not the fucking exploding rockets from SpaceX the size of a mini nuke or the hundreds of yatchs and private jets from millionaires burning fuel like it's free. Stop fucking coping and get an AC already, dumb brit.
>>741329323>4chan is an Americhad website anyway.Until 10pm, then EuroGODS run this place.
>>741330057
>>741327103Do they actually believe this? That's some insane ass brainwashing if so.
>>741330426Yes Americans believe that.
>>741330334whenever somebody says 'free healthcare', what even is free healthcare? I don't want my healtcare run by the same government that runs the DMV and the VA
>>741326890Reminder more people die in europe by random heat waves than americans getting shot
>>741327374>euros are too retarded to know how to boil water properly
>>741326890they prefer to manually "burp" the house than automate this process with an air conditioner
>>741327374ayo this nigga thinks reactor meltdowns work like the simpsons
>>741331190but I don't want it run by the same company that is beholden to stockholders
>>741326695Just apply coompaste
>>741331190The DMV is ruthlessly efficient, medical care should be too
nuclear is THE way, it is most clean, most efficient, highest energy generationit's only stopped because ((someone)) want everyone to keep paying more to liveit is also a perfect example of how an ideal world could be easily ruined by the incompetent, the stupid, and the evil
>>741326695By having central air condioning and keeping it at 64 degrees (17.8 degrees in eurotrash units).I'm actually a bit chilly so I got a second blanket.
>>741328079Germany is raizing most of its country for every little scrap of coal and lignite they can, they are in fact destroying wind farms and attempt to destroy villages too if they get in the way of mining operations. It's absolute looney tunes land and they do it because the politicians with their green initiative destroyed all the nuclear power plants (which is probably the most green energy source out there).
>>741326890you know how euros afford their universal healthcare? they sacrifice all their old people during heat waves
>>741327103kek retard
>>741332336nuclear is the most green energy sourceretarded still think nuclear is some dark magic that needed to be banned when in reality it's just boiling water to turn the turbine, same shit that coal is already doing but just switching the source of heatinggermany had it right all along in the 70s and then ((someone)) came around, saw it, and thought "they must not be happy" and started ((lobbying)) to remove and close down all nuclear plantsthe country also shut down all initiative to invest in solar power and fired all of its scientists in this field, something that china readily scooped upchina is now the sole leader in solar power generation, it already surpassed nuclear power capacity of entire EU continent
>>741327520>satellite pic of California in the 1800's>SATELLITE!
>>741326695>>741326890I bought AC to cope with my +10 degrees Celcius Swedish summer.
>>741326695Upgrade your home's ac poorfag it's like 10k
>>741327520>picI think about this. The past to us is grainy and black & white, the past in the future will be 4k and crisp. Maybe this is part of why they are pushing harder for a controlled Internet?
my parents replaced our HVAC with an air conditioner in every room
>>741328768>thinking datacenters are consuming all the electricity and waterthere's no better way to out yourself as a retard who gets all your news from social media, and has never actually researched any topic independently, except perhaps watching a couple youtube videos on the subject.datacenters are SMALL TIME in water consumption. people have been talking about how we're wasting insane amounts of water for decades now, but nobody gave a shit until it became the popular ragebait on tiktok and twitter. a golf course uses more water in a year than almost all datacenters.
Am I wrong in thinking that if we just capped the world population at a few billion we wouldn't have any of these problems? Obviously enacting that is another story
I was told by euros that they had superior homes/construction and infrastructure, but it appears that A/C is uncommon there, is this true? Are all yuropoors just incredibly insecure and obsessed with the US?
>be Brazilian>could buy another car with the money I've spent on my PC due to this shitty economy>live afraid of playing demanding games on it due to overheating during this eternal summerYeah yeah I'll buy an air conditioner, but I'll probably remain afraid of my setup dying again.
>>741326695I don't cope. My family doesn't believe in the AC, so I don't do anything on my PC until around now, which is after 8pm. If the sun is up, my PC is off. Tonight is a fairly cool night, but sometimes it just stays off in general because it never cools down. It's really annoying because I can hear the loud mechanical droning of AC units being turned on in other apartments surrounding us. >why don't you move outI don't have nearly enough money saved, my rent is only $300 here, and my job doesn't pay well enough. Moving out now if I did have the money would just be a waste. Even if I offered beyond my rent to pay for the electricity bill, my mom will complain about it being too cold at 75 degrees. The AC only ever comes on if it's over 90.
>>741331190And this is basically why the US doesn't have state healthcare. It can work well if you have a small and efficient bureaucracy with strong accountability. But when the bureaucracy has to be big, it becomes inefficient and wasteful. When it's unaccountable, it becomes shifty and corrupt, beholden to bizarre internal incentive systems and the ego of individual leaders with too much power.Every publicly run program in the US goes pearshaped, even their military.
>>741333985Modern parts are usually pretty adept at not cooking themselves, they'll usually throttle back before any damage occurs. I wouldn't worry about it, the bigger problem is that you'll tap out before your PC will.>>741334016My family doesn't believe in the ACMy dad was the same way, he would only turn it on when it was over 100 or so. Before then he'd set up box fans everywhere and while they helped it was still miserable. Now that I live alone I crank that shit all day erryday, as is my right as an American.
>>741334016I ended up under volting 3080 and 5700x. My PC is a lot cooler now and uses 30% less power, my room doesn't turn into an oven anymore.
>>741326695Just plant more trees and be happy
>>741332694Solar requires shit load of real estate, Germany is all built up and doesn't have any free space (and whatever free space they have, they are digging up in search of more lignite). China aside from its coast lines is like 95% rocky areas and fucking deserts. It's easy to rely on solar when you have so much empty space that's all but useless but to build solar panels on.Nuclear got phased out because they ran out of people who knew how the power plants worked, because they were built so well after Chernobyl that any moron could operate them and all safeties were automatic. But there's still natural amortisation and after 25+ years the plants were at the latter half of their operational lifespan. So they would have needed to go sooner or later, their fault there was not having people trained to be able to keep the plants fixed up instead.Also as I recall most modular nuclear power plant systems in the region are the work of a French initiative, so there may be some national pride fueling the Germans into not relying on France. Otherwise France could potentially tell them no more power plant parts if you keep fucking us through the EU (Germany has been ruining Europe repeatedly for the past 1000 years).
>>741326695As someone who has had a hyper 212 evo for more than 10 years, i'm already used to the noise.
>>741334327Just turn off PBO or Core Performance Boost or whatever the shit that Ryzens use to auto overclock themselves above default clock speeds. You can do it in windows power plans, go to the advanced settings and set maximum CPU limit to 99%. This turns off the turbo boost and the system runs at normal clocks.You do this and your ryzen will barely reach around 60C, if you have some hardcore cooling it'll run at 50-60C at most. I have a noctua heatsink and this way even at full load it doesn't even warm up. PBO overvolts the chips like crazy.
>>741334016It sounds more like your PC has some really shitty ventilation, you should check that first. As the other anon said, undervolting is also a very good solution, I did that last year and my PC rarely goes over 60°C while gaming, and I live in a very hot area with 40°C summers.
>>741334327>>741335176My room hits 87+ in the evening when I'm gaming for more than an hour or two. Is undervolting easy?
>have a/c>but thermostat is in another part of the house>room with pc boils me alive unless i blast the a/c continuously
>>741328935>>741329076didn't even fucking think about thatchernobyl happened because the USSR where incompetent retards, imagine that but 10 times worse and all across europe
>gaming in summer is pain>How do you cope anon?it isnt?
>>741327135not allowed!
>>741335921It is relatively easy and you should be able to find some tutorials in Youtube based on your motherboard. It's just a matter of changing some settings in the BIOS to limit voltage and max temps, you will barely see the difference in performance but you can easily drop 15 to 20°C by doing so.Myself, I had to do it when I played Dead Space Remake because for some reason that game uses a lot of CPU and it shot my usage to almost 100% with the temps going up to 90°C, and after undervolting it, it would max at 75°C while I was still playing in High settings.
>>741326695I have 6 of these thingies in my caseyou should try it too one day
>>741336536fucking lmao
>>741326695In the summer, I masturbate and don't game. In winter, I game and nofap.
>>741327021(French here) Costs a ton and there are tons of retarded regulations. Plus boomers overall don't need them as they live in huge houses made of good materials outside of big cities (and they have the money to buy them if needed), while the youth is trapped in shitty apartments in huge cities that trap heat, and have no money to spend on it.
>>741329690The only time it actually went wrong with any consequences outside the very nuclear plant was Chernobyl, and that was due to antiquated construction and drunk commies who disabled every safety feature. Nuclear is safe and by far the best, the only reason it hasn't taken over for decades by now is that the "fossil fuels" (that term is retarded but let's move on) giants don't want to lose their monopoly, so they push ineffective non-threatening shit like "renewable energy" because that doesn't actually threaten their market.
>>741326795We have stupid casement windows. Just awful. They don't work with window units, portables, nothing.
Only weak men use ACBE BETTER
>>741337408I'm going to provide a second casement window picture because this one looks like Boba Fett.
I have air conditioning for the one 90 degree day a year. It was like 60 degrees today.
>>741337564average day where I live is 110F AC is mandatory
>>741337649>average day where I live is 110FI'd rather 0 degrees
>>741337553Nice selfie.
I usually have my summer indies. Simple 2D games and other similar older stuff. I always use summer to catch up on retro and indie stuff I missed.
>>741326695It's winter my nigga
>>741327135Condensation, idiot. Your cpu is made to run at high temps. My 7800x3d is 79 to 81c in games, and that was in 34c its been fine so I just allow it. Warranty n thay
>>741332694>china has lists of people who its ready to give jobs to.Lol lmao
>>741337195Not only that, but Chernobyl had a fatal design flaw that meant that as the water boiled off, the reaction ran away from any control, new reactors couldn't melt down in the same way, even if every safety was turned off by drunk commies
>>741326695learn to undervolt your gpu, sweetie.
