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."

    In a controlled situation, you wouldn't have any problems with condensation. I imagine when they turn the coolers off, they would want to bring the temperature back up to room temperature via a controlled sequence. You will get condensation if you go from that cold to warm rather quickly.
