*time out*

Holy shit dude that is a pile of computers.

Holy shit dude that is a pile of computers.

Lord 3D Mark takes forever to download.

Only temp change since I left is in the video card. Up to 114C. going to stop Prime and do 3DMark and see if I can get the video card to act up and shut me down.

*sets alarm for 5 minutes and leaves

I am getting bored watching it. lol

Up to 84C but not going up as rapidly anymore.

3.3V rail is stable Video card still at 102C Fan RPM's are reported, CPU at 2250RPM Current pull seems consistent.

Running Prime 95. After 2 minutes my proc temps are up to 79C.

Better than expected, but still nothing special

Bass comes from installation...not power. Power won't hurt, but you shouldn't expect to all of a sudden shake mirrors with a cheap comp set bolted into the door. Please share all of the settings you have implemented and I am sure we can help.

You need to help us more to help you. We need to know ALL of the settings you have selected. Both in the head unit and on the amplifier. If it doesn't sound "better" with the amp there is something not installed correctly. It would also be helpful to see pictures of the door speakers installed. Improving them with a baffle and deadening could make the biggest difference.

And it is raining/sleeting/snowing right now.

We ain't got shit. Literally the snowmobile trails are NOT open in MN. There is one VERY small section of the state where this isn't the case, but it is a 6 hour friggin' drive away.

The only two times I've managed to force it down were: Converting 300+ pictures from Canon Raw to DNG while doing some surfing and other trivial shit in the background Copying 500gb of data back and forth while converting some DNG to JPG files. So both came while converting pictures, but considering that is ALL that is ever done to "work" the machine it would make sense that it causes it. I'll run some stress programs on it and watch the temps later todya.

It's hot but not insanity..... I wouldn't want my GPU that hot. It's odd that it's working so hard. It isn't working hard...

3d Mark and vantage mark are awesome. MemtestX86 is great for memory. Its a boot test though so you can't monitor live. Prime 95 is classic CPU testing. Ah, wow. Didn't realize tools from 95 still existed, lol.

Thought I'd drive an RCF at lunch time. Too fuckin' small so I didn't bother. Lexus sales guys make my skin crawl.

Shitty traction control Nissan https://autos.yahoo.com/blogs/motoramic/see-the-2-000-hp-alpha-omega-gt-r-do-a-burnout-at-200-mph-145905150.html

Probably was new no?

But at this point that has to be a throw away card

Sounds like video card. Fan on it probably shit no?

90% sure this is the mobo - Some 1366 slot Gigabyte http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128375 i7 920m processor http://ark.intel.com/products/37147/Intel-Core-i7-920-Processor-8M-Cache-2_66-GHz-4_80-GTs-Intel-QPI Video card is ATI 4650 -- that is running at 100C Other processors up to 47C or so sitting there.
