Title: Extreme System Cooling
Post by: TilDeath on January 06, 2009, 06:39:47 PM

I thought some of you might find this interesting.  How cool is your system (what the BIOS says).  Here are some interesting shots.

How is the temp so low you ask, like this.

First there is the Pot

Now add some insulation, Vaseline and a towel etc.

Don't touch!  Extreme cold will burn you as fast as fire

A Warlocks brew, those witches never knew how to cook anyhow

Notice the USB stick, that has pre-configured BIOS profiles.  The system boots from the USB and Viola, an Overclocked system.  Not good for game play though, you have to keep adding the the pot.  Might be good for long buff missions.  Give ya something to do

That's a good 20 C. colder than phase-change coolers like Prometia or Cooler Express.  How long does each pot of dry ice last?

I rather liked the one by Tom's Hardware that you dumped liquid nitrogen into. That and the cooking oil rig.
