WTF is going on with my computer? 77F now

can i blame it on the new mouse and keyboard i just bought?

Keyboard - http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/produ ... NTID=10717

Mouse - http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/produ ... NTID=10715

my actual cooling hasn't changed, same heatsink and fans i've always used

but my cpu temp is now 77F, where as a month ago I was at no lower then 80F

Cooler ambient temps? New BIOS?

Either way, quit complaining/bragging! ;) ;)

i did load the F6 bios, came out last week

but i don't see that changing the cpu temp reading

whew i need to turn down my fan speeds, its actually lowering my room temps

BIOS can definitely have an effect on the temp readings.... it can change the way the chip is calibrated.

I'd trade the whole kit and kaboodle in for a Commodore Amiga.
