water cool
« on: 12 June 2002, 07:44 »
well I am designing my block, just gotta buy the plexiglass

i'm using a thin copper plate as the base of a plexiglass box containing a large heat sink.  i will sandwich the flowthrough box onto my slot a and use a fuel pump to circulate back to the radiator and reservoir.

anyone else tried watercooling?

Once when i overclocked a PII266 to 466mhz and it set my shed (lab) on fire. And my perants went beserk (not many kids get ther own shed) anyways the water cooling did stop the CPU from damage.

I am thinking about getting a whole bunch of ABS tubing and creating a pipeline to the outside from my computer and pumping fresh cool outdoor air into my computer. It will be especially good here in canada where its always -50 and we all live in igloos with no running water...
