Ultimate Cooling System

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the break-out-the-thermal-underwear dept.

OCGeek writes "This should be interesting for the overclockers as VR-Zone has an article up on building a cascade cooling system that cools chips down to -110C. The guide shows you the components that are required for the cascade cooling system such as the compressors, condensers, refrigerants, evaporators, heat exchangers, oil separators etc. and the tools you would need. It allows hot chip like Prescott to reach over 5.1Ghz and ATi Radeon 9800 XT card to reach over 660Mhz core."

    "...and I got my harddrives up to 21.2K rpms. You should hear her boot up, man... It's like something out of a freakin' movie... and I uped the voltage on the monitor, too. I gotta wear welder's glasses to freakin' check email, d00d... It's the best," said the greasy yongster between mouthfuls of pizza.

    "Hey, did you up your typematic rate on the keyboard yet?" his friend asked excitedly. "One guy on the forums got his up to 1200 csp. That's uber as shit..." His words trailed off as the nubile 17 year-old waitress passed the geeks' table.

    "..." remarked Pete, the greaser.

    For cheap cooling for 6 months of the year, just move to Winnipeg and stick your PC on the porch.

    Won't work in the summer, but you'll be too busy trying to scrape mosquitos out of your cooling fan to care.

    I believe they attempt this in Florida and Texas a lot it involves something called "old sparky.
    To date all overclocked users end up dead though.
