General Mach Discussion / hot environment
« on: June 04, 2013, 10:10:19 AM »
A while back I was having problems that turned out to be "popped" capacitors on the motherboard of my computer. Since then, I've had the same problem a couple more times... So...
Does anybody know of a computer that is designed to run in a hot environment? My mill is in my (un-airconditioned) garage and my computers keep popping capacitors. Are there any good solutions that do not include an air conditioner or a computer cooler? Can I under clock the motherboard somehow to keep the heat down? Has anybody else had this same problem and found a solution? I am way too cheap to cool my garage (I'd put a smiley face after that but it's true).
Thanks for any ideas you may have!
