Cooling Contest

[Cluster]

Anyone can hook up a fan to their case. The more adventureous cut holes in the case. Those with a thicker wallet and a little bit of guts hook up water coolers. And of course you get the rare few that have the thick enought wallet to freeze their CPU with a VapoChill.

But then their are those who are a little more inovative. Using materials that weren't exactly meant for Computer cooling. Household items, industrial materials, and some major modifactions. See how creative you can be. All ideas are welcome. If you actually done it and have some pics of your extreme mod, that would be even better.

Winner gets a the ultimate of video cards, a almost useless Acer PT75 2MB SDRAM Video Card. Totally unclockable but proably has some usefull sparts like memory chips, chipset, and some capacitors. ;)

J/k about the card. Winner gets braggin rights. :D

Good Luck and it will be great to see what you cooling nuts to come up with.

You mean the 2 meg card?

Seeing as you're Canadian, you'll really appreciate my on going $0 Water cooling project. Parts for the water block are scavenged from my company's RMA dept. , and the rest of the parts are stuff I have lying around. Anything needed for the cooling system itself is paid for with Canadian Tire money. :D

That's cheating! It doesn't belong to you it belongs to the Company is therefore not yours so you cann't enter.

Ahh, Canadian Tire money. It can be substituted for real money in most southern states :D

[Tiger]

So is the competition restricted to Canadians? Seems pretty biased at the moment ;)
