Looking for a durable mouse and a temperature question
Hey guys, currently looking for a durable mouse, since my old one is getting broken due to a modding tool. A short backstory of it, more than a week ago, I reinstalled the C&C General series, and I use the worldbuilder for modifying the maps for the game, but the problem is that it's a mouse intensive software which means that I click a lot which leads to mouses getting broken. My current mouse sometimes doesn't respond when I click it or sometimes when I click it, it's like double clicking it, it's somewhat annoying sometimes, especially when I'm using the modding tool. So any suggestions on a new mouse or is there any way to fix the current one?
For the temperature question. I always thought that if I open my case, I would get cooler temperatures, so I did it but I was wrong, when my case is open, my hard drive temperatures is getting around 44~46 °C. A week ago, I left for an overnight, so I closed the case and after I came home the next day, I didn't remove the cover since I felt a bit lazy and due to the new position of the PC, but with that laziness, I noticed that my HD temperatures got cooler too, now I get 38~40 °C. My explanation why is the "open case" is not effective is that the heat is actually getting trapped since there's a CD/DVD reader above my hard drive and the heat is not being sucked out by the fan. So, any explanations why is that the open case is not effective at all (other than the dangers of dust)?
