water cooling by pumping water through my bar fridge

[algibson]

i was wondering if it would be possible to use a barfridge to cool the water pumping into a waterblock. By having a pool of water in the fridge i could pump water from that through the waterblock using 2-3 degree water, or better yet let it go though the freeza aswell which should drop the ater to at least 1'C :)

What do you guys think?

It should work as long as your fridge is powerful enough, if the fridge can't cope with the heat from your processor, i think you will end up heating the fridge instead of cooling the CPU. if you don't care about the fridge temps though, I think that your processor temps will still decrease.

i dont think it would hurt the fridge at al
i have my computer on top of the fridge and woulkd just need a couple of pipes going into the fridge, the door seal should still be okay and hopefully not make the fridge work to much harder

Similar things have been done before (i.e. putting the whole computer in a fridge). It works out okay, but you may want to put a fan on the refridgerator's condensor, because it's going to get hot having to work harder.

I was concidering the exact same thing but from the people I have talked to pointed out that the fridge isent made to run the compressor 100% of the time. and not made to have a constant heat source, but keem things that dont generate heat. and their is also condinsation. i concluded that it was to much work for the advantage
