cooling theyre processors to below freezing temps to achieve a higher overclock and better benchmark score. using anything from liquid nitrogen and dry ice to phase change and water coolers.

So much frost Sno, I wish I could do that

Sno asked me to post this here. I did a unplugged test of canned air upside down in my heatsink to see how the condensation is. Its a bit much for me to use on my main rig, but it might come in handy for some air cooled, or AAA records.

^ I'm not sure that's a good idea, didn't someone say that heatpipes can break / get damaged when they get cold? I might be wrong, cool pic anyway.

MARCI · Mar 5, 2009

Supercooling heatpipes can cause them to stop functioning while they're cold.. The liquid inside the pipe cools, or freezes, which eliminates the wicking action that makes heatpipes work

. . . .

Well, guess I shouldn't have done this then.

Got angry at my rig for being suborn when I was trying to bench, so I froze it with DICE and canned air.

HOLY POO! man, you got balls, so how did it work? Ends justify the means my friend

KonaKona · Mar 5, 2009

It was unplugged. Let the thing dry out for a few days afterwords as well.

I don't got the cash to replace parts yet.
