I take it you mean 11.5C not 11.5F? Otherwise I hope you've got plenty of antifreeze in there cos it's going to freeze solid any second, then bang goes your processor.

yea. running ur cpu at below 0 temps r bad for the cpu. b careful not to fuk up ur cpu dude. but nice work. that's some nice temps, and dangerous temps

Not true.......

The Mach Refrigeration Cases, run at below Zero, and it&#39;s considered the best cooling system you can get, and for 900 bucks it should be.

So I don&#39;t think it&#39;s going to hurt the chip.

i am trying to use 3x 120 mm fans(in a row, running at half power) ducted into a 80 mm radiater... very silent, but when i put my hand behind the radiater it has enough power to puch my hand away from the exhaust hehehe MORE POWER YAY&#33;&#33;&#33;

Al, What do you mean "three fans in a row"?

Side by side or stacked one behind the other?

You are using alcohol instead of water as the fluid medium in this system, how did the pump like the change?

I am not terribly surprised by the results of your experiment, I would expect dramatic temp drops with a near frozen radiator.
Have you considered getting a little refrigerator and putting the radiator in that?
Your results may not be as extreme as with salted, icy water, but much more sustainable.
