Extreme cooling for extreme weather (formerly "Vapochill Case Cooler")

Thanks, I'll have a deep look into that before posting the questions I have now.

Extreme cooling for extreme weather (formerly "Vapochill Case Cooler")

I see. Any recommendation on watercooler kit? Do you think the one given previously woiuld be enough? I could use Maze4 and its versionfor GPU, I guess. Double pump+double circuit (one for CPU + one for the others)? One pump with big pipe then multiple pipes like an Hydra or a classical parallel...

Extreme cooling for extreme weather (formerly "Vapochill Case Cooler")

Is that so? I mean, when pump stops, the hotplate gets extremely hot, but, hot enough to make it burn? I guess the best way would be using temperature sensors on both cold plate and hot plate. On cold plate to avoid condensation and on hotplate to stop the system when overheated. Are not watter...

Extreme cooling for extreme weather (formerly "Vapochill Case Cooler")

I used to. But P4 show better behavior by now. I will be AMD fan again when Athlon64 become a real option and M$ releases its Windows Longhorn for AMD64. :) Ah!, I used to be Linux fan too. Long time ago, at the university. Now I am just a Windows slave. From AMD+Linux to Intel+Microsoft. What...

Slave123, liquid nitrogen is too expensive. And it imposes very extreme manipulation caution. You could easily loose your hands if you touch it. No way. Slave123, el nitrógeno líquido es demasiado caro. E impone precauciones de manipulacion extremas. Puedes fácilmente...

Extreme cooling for extreme weather (formerly "Vapochill Case Cooler")

Many thanks. :) I'll have a hard time studying those gadgets you just listed. ;) Just a couple questions before asking at those forums about how to mod GPU block to fit NB & SB. Why do you chose a TEC+water for GPU and only water for CPU? There is a TEC+water one at SwifTech too, why did you...

Extreme cooling for extreme weather (formerly "Vapochill Case Cooler")

Ok, let this be our "2004 PC challenge" or "How to cool down your PC on a summer siesta". :cool: I have been thinking about the peltier dissipating so much heat from the CPU (yes, I know I gave up but I honestly cannot live without a PC) (Oh, sh*t, I'm an addict). If all heat from CPU must be...

Extreme cooling for extreme weather (formerly "Vapochill Case Cooler")

Buff. I have been doing a few calculations on peltier units from Melcor Thermoelectrics (with their AZTEC software) and it is almost impossible to pump so much heat at these conditions. Just for the CPU (heat transfer of around 100w, CPU temperature 20ºC and ambient temperature of 40ºC) I would...

Extreme cooling for extreme weather (formerly "Vapochill Case Cooler")

That fine. :) Thanks. I'll love to hear your suggestions on how to spend my money. Actually the PC I'll buy would be quite expensive (I want it to last a few years) so a high performance cooling system shouldn't be an issue. From your suggestion I guess you are a fan fan. Wouldn't that be too...

I do not understand what you mean. As I said, my englush is not my best and you are using too many acronyms (?) and take too many words out. I see there is a list of components I could use, but I do not know if you are makeing a serius suggestion or just teasing me. Going one step further on...

Extreme cooling for extreme weather (formerly "Vapochill Case Cooler")

Actually I thoug about a new cooling system that could dissipate heat even when air temperature is very high. Think of using peltier on CPU, VGA, NB, SB, Mem sticks and HDD surface. All of them controlled and feed from a home made PCI card (I could do the electronic/electrical design and code a...

Extreme cooling for extreme weather (formerly "Vapochill Case Cooler")

Thanks God that yearly failure is not the whole PC. I had actually a CPU burn out and two hard disks that stopped working. The CPU did get burnt because I overclocked it slightly on winter. Then summer season came and the CPU got too hot. I guess my motherboard did not behave properly (it is 5...

Extreme cooling for extreme weather (formerly "Vapochill Case Cooler")

I think I did not explain my problem properly. Outside case air is too warm. Outside it is summer (not now, of course) and in Spain that means temperatures up to 40ºC. That will not cool down anything even with a direct incoming air flow. Think about it like if I am living on a desert and no...

Water Cooling

Hey, what a great idea. ;) I cannot use watercooling since air temperature would not allow heat dissipation (at the end, watter just moves the heat from the chip to a farther fan+HS). I think I'll get the freezer and put the PC inside. :) Wait, I'll need a dehuumidifier too. ;) Ja, ja, ja. :(...

Extreme cooling for extreme weather (formerly "Vapochill Case Cooler")

A mi tambien me parece caro, pero no he sido capaz de encontrar nada más que baje la temperatura de toda la caja. Para la CPU, el north-bridge y la tarjeta de video hay soluciones de agua y peltier, incluso para la RAM puedes ponerle disipadores y un ventilador. Pero ¿qué hacer con...

Extreme cooling for extreme weather (formerly "Vapochill Case Cooler")

I have to say I am not doing any OC t the moment but it is certainly planned on the near future. Not extreme OC but enough to get the performance I feel I paid for. The issue here is that I am living in Spain. That is extremely high summer temperature. The termometer could go as high as 35ºC -...

Extreme cooling for extreme weather (formerly "Vapochill Case Cooler")

Hi guys, Have you tried this cooling solution. I says it would work with your current air-stream based cooling solution but keeping inside-case temperatures very low. http://www.vapochill.com/main/page.asp?sideid=402 Could you please have a look and tell me your opinion. Do you think it...
