I think that with the calcs copper sulph is not an option because it will not give much in the way of depressing freezing point.Strangelove said:Has anybody given any thought to the conductivity of copper sulphate?? I mean we use distilled water to minimize corrosion and as a small safeguard should the system leak and spill on to our system. If we were to dissolve copper sulphate into our water, it will conduct electricity, like nothing you have ever seen. (The first batteries were made with a copper and zinc solution aka galvanic cells.) We also have to think of how much salt we dissolve, if our cooling system one day goes banana and starts cooling more than it usually does (cold day?) the salts might start going out of solution and my guess is that that would be baaad!
Just a thought

The two most commonly used are Calcium Chloride where temperatures of not less than -18C are used and Sodium Chloride 23% for temps down to -22C.
Well the answer lies in really good insulation.Samzik said:how u think to isolate the water wich is in air when u freez the cpu. i had a friend hes idle temrature was -35 not with water though, he used gas called freon but he had problems water condesaiting to cpu and mobo, wich finaly killed hes cpu he got high results though. 600 cel @ 1.2 gig last 200 mhz didnt give any perfomance though.
I think you got your alcohol's mixed ( and not a cocktail either) methanol (as opposed to ethanol which is what you drink) is really dangerous stuff and makes copper sulphate look like a nice old granny. Copper sulphate is not really that poisonous unless you ingest large amounts of it. Methanol on the other hand is a very sneaky one because you don't have to take it. Just inhale it for a while and the route is straight into your blood stream.WeaponX said:Just a thought.... Copper(II) Sulfate is poisionous.... get some under your fingernail and goodnight
I think Methanol is the stuff that we like to drink. I wonder how wine or vodka would work...
