78°C is super hot. o.o;;

I think I've read it can stay around that temp for quite some time before it turns into a problem.
Like, even if people are right, they're too concerned with that rather than actual discussion.
I don't have a snappy cartoon to make my point, or lack thereof, for me but you know what actually happens a hell of a lot more around here? The completely fucking absurd whine-fests from about how D&D is an "echo chamber" and that the rightous few martyrs to the truth (eg: spool) are being opresses by the heathen.

For reference idling in bios was around 50 C with stock cooling and everything original.
ok i asked this in the middle of the night but i'll do it again now that people are here: do any of you use productivity apps or reminder apps or to-do programs or note taking or whatever and find them useful? i've been trying to mess with a few (including evernote, clear, etc.) but i can't shake the feeling that i'm basically jerking my dick. it doesn't feel meaningfully different from just writing shit in the Reminders app or in an e sticky note

just jerking your dick has never been a problem in the past, why is it an issue now?

Reminders App is a really good "to do" tool. It's getting better in Mountain Lion WRT having access to it on your desktop as well, and device-specific to-do lists.
To make serious use of some of the more advanced principles of GTD, you need to read up on how to do it. GTD is something that actually works for a large number of ADHD addled people, and programs like Evernote, ToDo, and such are really good about setting up the containers appropriately.
Without a study in how to make proper use of the flags, containers, task structuring, and whatnot... you are better off just using a standard checklist.

hmmm, i guess.
i think i feel like the overwhelmingly common problem is people just don't want to do unpleasant things. and it feels like restructuring and ordering and prioritizing stuff doesn't change the fact that when you get to item 1 (or 10 or 100) on the list, you still have to write the 8 page paper or prepare the expense report.
it feels like it is trying to solve a problem that i don't really have.

I use the notes thing in iOS or textedit on OS X to make lists of shit, and move them around as the big stuff get done. For real note taking, it's pencil and paper all the way. I've tried to be more computery in this area because I love excuses to play with toys but nothing as ever gone past the dick-jerking level for me, ESPECIALLY when I'm trying to take notes in engineering or math classes. There simply exists no decent alternative to hand-written notes, interspersed freely with diagrams, equations, and pictures of dicks. Computers can do the same stuff and make it look prettier, but they can never do it as quickly or easily, and that's essential in a fast-moving class where you're trying to pay more attention to the lecture than your note-taking process.

For most things, it usually hangs in the 30s. I'd run Metro to see how hot is after playing for a bit, but I'm busy right now.

my strategy in classes was always hand-written notes in those black-and-white splotchy cover composition books on on power point "notes" printouts or 2-to-a-page .pdf printouts (depending on the class), then make outlines in word or somesuch to study with for the exam
always worked well, never failed me
straight up taking notes in class on a computer was always a disaster. there's always some diagram you have to draw that isn't a practical thing to do on a computer.

78 degrees celsius is hot, to be sure, but during load, especially cpu intensive work like rendering in Maya, a cpu will get hot.
I think 80 degrees is the red line, which you're right on the cusp of, so I'd look into an aftermarket cooling solution if you haven't.
I have an i7 that barely breaks 50 degrees at load. I put a Hyper 212+ on it. That heat sink is amazing.
yeah i am not planning to take notes with a computer (especially in math/science courses). i was more talking about outside of class, in the process of studying and time management.

Plus the Hyper is cheap, like 20-30 bucks for a great heat sink.

Ok, well I've been googling this before but there's not much progress to be made. Some people thing above 60 is too hot and some others cite Intel saying that you should keep it below 70 for longer periods of time but that it can take 80 for brief periods.

For outlining papers or organizing research, I usually just make a big word document that slowly morphs into the thing that I am trying to create. The model works well for short undergrad work but started to fall apart at the graduate level. For my thesis, I had to adapt a little, changing to a LATEX document for each chapter and folders of supporting material. A couple text documents of notes outlining things. For equations, I'd work them out on paper, then enter them into the computer all at once and fit them in the paper as-needed.
I guess I've never felt like working on a computer was so burdensome that I needed a magic organization application for my ideas.

when you're overwhelmed prioritizing can be useful to help you get your arms around what it is you have to do
in other words
in real life, outside of the classroom, not every assignment is a "must do"
things have varying levels of importance
for instance, my job is basically one big balancing act of this kind of stuff
some stuff is super important and needs your attention (the 60-tab 1000-line-per-tab excel model i've built in the last 72 hours, for instance), other stuff does not matter as much and can slide down the list (stupid administrative paperwork stuff i have to do)
additionally, if i made no lists it would be very, very easy to forget things (forgetting that a cell was hardcoded for debugging purposes in my excel model for example could cost our client a million dollars or more, for real)

Most likely I will know when it explodes.
70 is reasonably safe but lifespan-shortening. 80+ is substantial lifespan shortening. 100 is will break in a few minutes. Unless you have some kind of bleeding edge overclocked beast, properly functioning heatsink+moving air cooling will get you in the 50s and 60s under load and keep you there. If you're higher, something is wrong and you should just figure out what it is and fix it.

gooey that sounds reasonable. i guess that since school will be 'do everything', and not a sliding scale of procrastination... even with a part time job i probably won't have enough tasks for me to be the target audience

I believe it comes with a little tube of thermal paste. Make sure that you apply the paste in a very thin layer on the cpu, covering the whole top of the processor itself. It only needs to be paper thin. Also, that stuff stains skin like whoa. :P

This. My job is similarly terrible and I'm always stressed, so making lists is super important.
My boss encourages everyone to apply two values to every task: important and immediate. Things that are both important and have to be done immediate go on top of the list, things that are not important and don't have to be done immediately are potential tasks to give to colleagues. Everything in between has to be prioritized based on what value you apply to it, with speed normally taking precedence over importance.
