• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Cooling Method

Very ingenious. His way, lots of time and money. Easily done with the same results having far less time and money invested. He obviously worked in a metal shop and had access to a CAD for layout and design. And from looking at it, he thought up a great project from the end results. College project possibly.
 
The first method, with the custom desk and all, is way more work than I'm willing to put into it.

The mineral oil method of cooling is nothing new and it does work as long as you can keep the oil cool. It would be a bit of a mess when you decide it's time for a new video card, power supply, RAM, etc.

I think I'll stick with traditional air cooling, at least for now. No, I can't overclock my Core2Quad to 6 GHz, but air cooling is simple and I like the simple things in life. :mixedsmi:
