Interesting, I have 4 S5's in the basement and it was in the 80's last week, but the basement wasn't too bad.  I don't think the S5's heat up as much as the S3's...but I have 4 S5's compared to the 8 S3's I had in the past.  And as long as bitcoin is profitable, I'll continue to run those S5's....until the next gen comes out of course.
I have 2xS3 and 1xS5 that are still running.
The S5 runs 24/7 but the S3s are off during peak electricity cost (~50c/kWhr)
The S5 is usually blowing cool air out of it - they default the fans way higher than needed - so I had almost no problem with it during summer.
The S3s fans are slower and also warmer air coming out of course.

has anyone tried to change the fan speeds in software?
