It’s Gone Too Far!

I just took my laptop out of the freezer.
I can’t take this anymore.
My CPU peaked at 147 degrees, my GPU at 154 degrees. This is absurd. My hands were uncomfortable, but more importantly, my stupid variable speed CPU was running at Windows 98 speeds.
It’s such a moronic system. Because the computer is hot, it runs slower. Because it runs slower, Opera takes up 100% CPU, since it can never finish its current task. Because the CPU is running at 100%, it runs hot! And as a result, the temperature never drops, until I put my computer in the freezer, and CPU usage drops to normal levels.
Moronic expensive technology.
I’m calling Dell. I’m gonna tell them this thing is defective. Maybe a new CPU will run cooler. Thank god for warranties and on-site service.
Anyone else have a computer massively overheating as the weather […]
