Reaching -C° *PICS*

My friend and I were planning this for a week. We finally got some "AirDr" and sprayed the HSF until - temps (-3C or so) ... Enjoy:
Test Sytem:
AMD 2200+ Thorton Core
MSi KT6V Mobo
SimpleTech PC2700
PNY Verto 5900SE
Tt HSF (Barf)
Tt HSF:

BIOS: It reached -C° when it says "Not Present"

Our Cooling Device: "AirDr"

Layout

Will post more pictures.

EDIT* I will use some PC4000 tonight along a HDD / cooler temps.

Wow that is so cool (excuse the punt)

LOL.... nice work. I knew it is possible to reach - C on air.

Is it not booting or something? No screenshot of everest?

Nonono, that's cheating

What you used is a phase change cooler. Fluid changes to gas and temperature drops

Maybe it's got normal air heatsink and can't run 24/7, but it's still phase change unit. However it qualifies as well as air cooling, it's "cheating" (

) and a piece of great work at once, kudos

No benchmarks, I dont have an extra HDD

. My friend and I will try to get 2.6Ghz (our goal, already 2.3 stable) and we will post some benchies. I'll use my 120Gb hdd in it

.

jack222 · Apr 9, 2005

2.3? Do you mean 4.3? Also, that stuff wont last for too long. You shouldve gotten dry ice instead if you just wanted the fun of it. Dry ice is soo cool. Did you just turn the can upside down or someting?

xTrEmEoVrClOcKr · Apr 9, 2005

Yes, well this is on my old 2200+, I wont be getting 4.3Ghz outta thing thing

. I didn't have dryice available at the hardware store .. plus this is easier to use

Lol, thats awsome, its so cool to put it on your self and watch it boil away

this reminds me of a pic i saw in a magazine once.
there was a guy who had basically the same idea as you, except he used a tank of CO2 (i think) strapped to the back of his pc and had it blasting straight into his hs

xTrEmEoVrClOcKr · Apr 9, 2005

Im going to do that lol.

maxxoverclocker · Apr 9, 2005

Sentential · Apr 9, 2005

i have some friends that pretty much did the same thing with prorane. good stuff.

xTrEmEoVrClOcKr · Apr 10, 2005

Dont know why this is consitered "Extreme Cooling". Its not phase change .. .its just canned air blown on a HSF... lolz

Sucka · Apr 10, 2005

hahaha........that's awsome. Nice work.

ZachM · Apr 10, 2005

How long will the heatsink hold the processor below 0 degrees before having to re-chill it? I would think, especially at OCed load, that it wouldn't be able to hold up without a constant supply of the liquid.
