    Hey guys, an intresting idea, i was replacing one of the fans on my radiater and though, heh, while i am waiting i will expirament, so i through the radiater into a big thing of ice and water, and i have been running everything full blast(rendering 3d movies at over 4000x3000 res) and the cpu temps keep on droping!!!

    i thought that this could show the potential of my CPU block if my radiater was godly anyway i guess iam just really exited...(i will definitly be buying a little bit of liquad hydregen when i go to my uncle's house next time i visit!!1


    current temps are 15.5 F vand getting cooler all the time!!!

    edit= F

    This doesnt seem like much of a permanant soultion though, eventually the ice melts, faster even though because the hot air from the radaitor is being transferred to it, so you would have to keep replacing the ice water.

    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.

    You can almost hear the ticking while he works out that 11.5F is well below the freezing point of water.
