Hey guys if I just picked up a few computer parts today, CPU, Motherboard, Video Card, Ram. how long would I have to wait to hook everything up if I left them in car for about 5-6 hours at -15ºC or 5ºF
 
Solution
Yeah, just wait for them to come up to room temp.

They survived a 3 week long boat trip across the Pacific in winter, various trucks and warehouses, and then all day in the cold UPS truck.

Yeah, you'll be fine...I'd just bring them inside the house and wait for them to get to room-temperature. To tell you the truth, I don't think there is a defined number of hours you need to wait, again, just let them warm-up in your house.
