This is more of a temporary cooling method for short term benchmarking and extreme ghz. Definitely not a long term solution.
 
The basic chemistry of liquid nitrogen is that it should not be a liquid at room temperature, and rather should be a gas (like the nitrogen in the atmosphere). So when we buy highly compressed and/or cooled nitrogen in liquid form, at room temperature that liquid simply evaporates back into gaseous form. But as will all evaporation, energy must be put in to change state. So the energy produced by our processors (in the form of heat) is what "fuels" the evaporation of the nitrogen.

Too many people misuse the term "heat." There is no such thing as "cold," only very little heat. ;)
