Heh heh, now that would be interesting.  Im betting nVidia is already testing out methods on doing that.  I would like liquid cooling, since the price has gone down a bit, but it is kinda ugly, dont you think?

No actually I think it looks rad. Heh what a lame word.

I've seen some bad-ass pics of a custom made complete set of waterblocks for a 9800 Pro.

But in the sense, not the same liquid cooling.

Gotta love SBC with their 6Mbps tier for 45$
(Yes, on their site it only shows 3Mbps, but it is actually 6Mbps, I would know :)).

My system configuration on this computer is quite balanced.  There is no component in there that is warmer than my mouth.  Even with only the origional fans Gateway provided along with the card running in aggressive mode.

As I think about this overclocking ordeal, I wonder why I even need it.  The Doom III alpha runs fine, and itll run even, uh, finer once the code is fixed.  And by next fall, I will have my own system.

What you talking about?  All it would require would be to attach a third arm to yourself and hold it behind the device while playing Doom III.

Or, you can enclose your PC in the freezer.

I think I just had a breakthrough!  A PC freezer!

Well, you're talking about spraying on the liquid carbon-dioxide (guessing that is what is in those aircans) on the card while in operation.  Not only would you have to worry about the instant watery like effects, but condenstation, especially being right on it would fry it in a couple of seconds.

C02 does not create water.  I bet I could lay a dry icecube in my system and no harm would come to it, since it doesnt create anything more than a gas when melted.

*edit*

Hmm, ok I stand slightly corrected: http://van.hep.uiuc.edu/van/qa/section/ ... 192710.htm

It would be quite possible to do this, but it would need to be in an open environment, without the case, or with the side panels removed, since it would condense like you said.

But, in an environment such as a freezer, I bet the computer could thrive, just as long as humidity was low and climate is relatively dry.

No, but it does condensate very easily because it is so cold when it comes out of the can.

I dont think we would need a case if the computer was in the freezer.

The design would be a free-standing architecture away from any of the sides of the freezer.  It would stand up on metal rods that would have some support style that would not interfere with the mobo.

All external devices would be connected through cables that reach outside the box without letting any air out.  Hmm..  Perhaps a series of chambers through which the cable goes through until it reaches a room-temperature and comes out of the freezer.


Or, one could try liquid nitrogen.  No smoking, plz.

I don't know what your correction was, Darwin, since I didn't bother to look at that site. Pardon me if what I'm going to say is repetition...

CO2 has no aqueous (liquid) state as a result of temperature, but gaseous CO2 can be compressed into a liquid. Although, I cannot see any practical use of such a substance...

Oh, and DaRkEcHoEs, despite repeated requests from numerous people you simply refuse to stop speaking pig-latin, or whatever the hell you're saying. I'm just going to skip your posts now...

The DoDoDo.

Your opinion is worthless unless you can support it.
We are not responsible for your stupidity.
I don't take sides. I take action.
