Heatwave Memes

34.5°C and 54% humidity sitting next to a gaming rig with RGB lighting is basically running a distributed computing cluster in your bedroom. The GPU alone is pulling 300W, the CPU's thermal throttling, and you're wondering if your setup qualifies as a space heater for tax purposes. The real optimization problem here isn't frame rate—it's deciding whether to turn off the RGB to save 5W or accept that you're now mining Bitcoin with your body heat. Your cooling solution went from "adequate" to "catastrophic failure" the moment ambient temperature exceeded your CPU's idle temp. Fun fact: Most gaming PCs generate between 400-800W of heat. That's literally a small space heater. In summer. In Europe. Where AC is considered a luxury item.
