Osviux said:I remember my old GPU would reach temperatures up to 170 degrees Celsius during winter, had to play on the lowest graphics and Directx7 to increase good performance time, for cooldown I used to take my PC box to the balcony where it was around -10 degrees so 5 minutes were usually enough. Even though this was done at my home, don't do that at your home, kids.
170 degrees celcius is 70 degrees over the maximum temperature for almost every single piece of electronic hardware created in the past 10 years. Your system would have shut down at 110, and suffer severe heat damage at 170.
