lol yup what a waste of money XD and btw quinn u forgot the mouse and keyboard, the 2 most important things Also i recomend going with the industrial fan and radiator like i did :-P better cooling and cheaper :-)

You want a cheap solution for cooling stuff down?
1: Dont pay for heating or oil
2: Buy a big fridge
3: leave it open
4: When its winter and freezing, leave all windows and doors open.
5:????
6: COOLING!

Are you an idiot? Mouse and keyboard are the cheapest things ever. You could have only 1 mouse and keyboard and 20 computers. Infact, thats how most servers are setup.

Also, you do not know crap about liquid cooling, quinn knows worlds more about computers then you do.

First off, its meant to be a waste of money. Our "Powerball" here in Canada is called Lottomax, and the jackpot is ofter 50 million. So Money is no concern. Secondly, just ask me how many keyboards and mouses I have. Just ask. Third, I would like to see you prove that theory. We'll pit your "Industrial" rad up against ONE of Koolance's, and see how things go, m'kay? (2000w of heat dissipation, per radiator).

Actually leaving the fridge door open would cause the fridge to work harder to produce the cooling there fore generating more heat nulling the advantage of leaving it open.

How many?

[Quinn]

How many?

In this room alone I have 6 pairs of keyboards and mice. If I check my basement, where I store parts, I probably have quite a few more.

What I meant to say was:

Buy a a BIG BIG fridge like the ones where you hang cows bodies. problem solved.

There is still two problem's from that,A) where the **** would someone get one of those, and B) fridege's cool stuff that is around them, a person tried useing a fridge to cool his cpu and if it wasnt for the failsafe activating 24 seconds after he hit the power button he would of burned it out. it maybe could work with a industrial but meh, liquid nitrogen ftw

[Quinn]

liquid nitrogen ftw

/disagree
Usually wrecks CPUs, they aren't meant to get that cold. Phase Change cooling ftw.

You obiously have no idea how fridges work. They draw heat from a closed area and output it into the outer area. Leaving the door open renders the fridge useless.

To a degree (no pun intended), but running a CPU at such low temps is not sustainable.

If someone gives me a fridge, I will modify it to put a computer in it...
Wouldn't be too hard *starts drawing plans*

This has gone so out of topic lol
But for argument sake liquid nitrogen would either freeze the chip and once it heats up will cause cracks or worse.
Keeping a working pc in a fridge is a bad ideas as the air inside a fridge is very moist aka pc+ cold water= bad idea

Thank you

Yeah while without a mouse or keyboard a computer is worthless, unless you got a touch screen :-P And yeah i would love to put my cooling system against that cheap peice of plastic koolance has. Ive seen koolance's system and its a complete rip off, peice of junk. Mine might now look as fancy but it provides far better results.
