hehe
thats pretty cool
messy though

i'd probably invest in a cheap bar fridge and have a reservoir of chilled coolant(be it water, brine, glycol etc) attack the fridge with a hole saw
that way you'd also have a handy food\drink fridge near by Smile

although that might cause condensation on the water block, which would be bad
hrmm

What gets me is why anyone would want to watercool an Athlon 64? My A64 3200 runs about 35 degrees, and thats just with Zalman heatsink. Thats hardly warm for a chip.

overclock it and see how much it heats up
the more you overclock the hotter it becomes

just read his little article on it
its a worry that he plans on painting the radiator
then again
i doubt he'd need that much efficiancy due to the large surface area...still, unless he's careful the paint could act more as an insulator


Dust:

that liquid n2 cooling is hardcore
wouldnt want to sneeze at it though....crack bang Razz

Eh.. the A64's really aren't that great for overclocking. Even if you have a board that can lock the AGP/PCI bus and let you just pump up the CPU's frontside bus, they have nothing on the Athlon XP's.
