Ausdauer, re: "I refuse to open the box and touch it to feel the temperature."

The last "hot" PC I built suffered from a BIOS failure after about two months. After five hours on the phone with MSFT and two days of figuring of my own, I gave up ... and pulled the hard drive, CD-ROM and memory and ... then tossed that PC down the trash chute. When I stuffed my memory and storage into a new, Tualatin-based (Intel) barebones PC, everything ran just fine.
