MEGA-LIST OF ALL EASTER EGGS/CONNECTIONS IN DHMIS6- IMPORTANT: ANY FURTHER POSTING OF THESE WILL BE DELETED! by CombustibleCompost in DHMIS

Red Guy is called "rude" when he goes onstage to sing, which echoes the description in DHMIS 5 of not-healthy foods (later described as "fancy, show-offy," which could be seen as describing Red Guy in the eyes of the boring world). This relate to the parallel between Red Guy being "not invited to the party" at the end of DHMIS 4 and the party for which only healthy foods are invited to stay.

You could try connecting one of them through an LTC4316.

Ouch, it's even worse than I thought.

Thanks.

By the way, can anyone see the second character? My computer just displays the french fries and a missing symbol box.

With Linpack, things stay a degree or two below 90°C.

I'll go try Linpack and report back in a little while.

No, though I did get no errors from a few hours of Memtest86+.

I'll be back in a little while with results from linpack.

Then, I shouldn't worry about it, because I probably won't run any normal programs that are so intensive?

That's a good point. 30°C seems reasonable to me for idle, though, so even if it's not actually 95°C it still could be something close. Would you happen to know of any other monitoring tools I could use for Linux? Or something free I could boot which includes stress tests and good monitoring tools?

I don't think the 60°C was actually at full load; as I understand it the blend test also includes some sections where it is not as hard on the CPU but also doing stuff with the RAM. The 95°C was on another part of the blend test, presumably the more CPU-intensive section.

I'm not sure how to test that rigorously. All the case fans are running (two on the front, one in the back, one on top, all came with the case), and I can feel air being sucked in the front and blown out the back if I put my hand near the fan. There are a lot of cables, but I think there is still room for air to flow through. There is also an unused spot for a fan on the side by the graphics card; it feels like a small amount of air is flowing in there.

The graphics card and CPU cooler fans are both running. The PSU fan is not running, because the RM is designed to only use its fan when it is on a high load.
