Hey guys. Don't know if I'm posting this in the right section but I bought the iPhone 5c and wanted to know if there is an app that allows me to control my PC. Since I have xbmc I have the remote for that but getting up to turn the PC off or open stuff up is a pain.
Quick suggestion on what's available to me.
iphone 5c or htc one mini.
will only be web surfing when connected to a network.
love to take pictures and video.
only for texting.
saw them both in person and i like the feel of the htc one mini but the 5c in green is also nice.

Hope this is in the right section.

Hi all. I just got me a 3570k and it's on stock speeds and fan. I'm folding right now and for the most part of the day it's been hovering around 80c full load. Is this ok? I will be getting a cooler for it but now I'm broke. Oh, the rig is not in a case. It's on the mobo box.
