    Crazy, if a little pointless. I like to see people pushing things though. How long until this setup is put into a case and made usable?

    Pretty cool. heh.

    Depends. If you mean "how long until liquid nitrogen cooling is mainstream?", then never TBH. If you mean "how long until this level of power is mainstream?", probably a couple of years, tops.

    Heh, LN2 is cheaper than milk, the container it comes in is the most expensive part since you have to put a deposit on it usually. It's pretty safe too if you're not stupid with it, don't drink it though, your lungs explode.

    Although I still think they should use liquid helium, but that has a tendancy to explode...and by explosion I mean big ass explosion.

    Gah, thought you meant proper WR's as in top of the ORB lol...

    Awsome scores tbh, goes to show the power of the new chips from Intel tbh, well into FX/AMD territory with those scores...

    first off that ****ing crazy and UBER cool (no pun intended) and i sooo wanna try that...lol if only i could afford the hardware

    actually i have an idea :idea:...i wonder why its never occured to me that i can get easy access to LN2 <insert evil sadistic laugh> and a conatiner....what about having a spray nozzle that sprays LN2 onto your cooler whe it reaches a temperature threshold like the N2O spray system you can get for car intercoolers

    u can tell ati lent a hand, normall when people kool with LN they bust a record and then the entire board is covered in ice about 5 minutes later. Thats the cleanest setup that i've seen. Good on um.
