What's everyone do in the summer when benching with LN2 as far as ventilation goes? It is 100-105 here daily and I just can't justify opening a window. Suggestions?

my office is about 1500 square feet and its a fairly open floor plan, I just have AC going and some fans moving the air around. At home same thing, i know when my torch stops working its time to open a window lol

Got a little 1 year old running around is my main concern otherwise I wouldn't be so worried. The MAP gas torch also has me worried. Years ago I was working with one in the house with no windows open and it set off the carbon monoxide alarm. If I can't come up with a solution, and I fear there isn't one, I'll be gone until November when I can open up windows. Well maybe October but it ain't cooling off here anytime soon. Everything else I have to bench will require LN2 so the DICE is pointless.

How about benching up next to a window with it cracked and a fan blowing air out?

That sounds to be about my only option. Do it late at night I guess too. Just going to tweak my various systems on air to get use to them and hopefully by then temps might be a little cooler. Also continue to stack some hardware. I still need to get a 990 FX mobo, 965 BE, thermometers well as a few other odds and ends. 955 BE is arriving today. Hopefully she is a good one. Good thing about the new bot, AMD is worth a shit now to bench. 955 BE's and 965 BE's are worth some good bointage.

get a cheap in-window A/C unit and a couple fans - should be good to go I'd think ??
