Optimal average % humidity and T in your room?

Featured Replies

In your opinion which is the optimal % humidity and Celsius Temperature to have in pc's room for best hardware conservation?

I can't answer that, but I can attest to how tolerant PCs are with respect to greatly varying humidity & temperature. For example, I have had my PC's back cover off so that I can direct air-conditioned air at ~40 degrees F directly at the mainboard, GPU, DRAM, and CPU via two 4" metal flex ducts that come out of the cardboard cowling I fashioned for my thru-the-wall A/C unit...for about 10 years now all told, with no problems other than a CPU I killed from overvolting (I'm quite confident). Since the A/C cycles on and off when it is turned on, air temp oscillates between 40F and maybe 48F over a 10 minute period--over and over and over, and no troubles. I have a very stable system.

I've not achieved in anyway, it's my opinion, best way to achieve a value range 50-60% is a humidifier sure!

 

I purchased an igrometer to monitor it to see max and min variation vs others rooms and see if pc room has less or more humidity.
