I've never seen the pyjamas effect (that I remember), but I did upgrade
the graphics card on our Aria Cube and did, to my disappointment, see
the no-pyjamas effect again on a few occasions some time later. Since
this was during a renewed cold snap and the room was below 60F at the
time, like you I concluded that it must surely be temperature-related.
I'd like to know how Paul Vigay keeps his house at 22C without central
heating: the ambient temperature around here in an unheated post-war
semi is more like 16C! (In fact, I'm currently sweating slightly due
to wearing two jumpers when the temperature has spiked over sixty
degrees; wonderful thing, acclimatization....)
