Played with some dry ice last night.
Ran that bugger for 7 hours straight. CPU never went hotter the -20 load, best it did was -38 idle.
This was a FX-53 and SK8V.
Wraped it in seran wrap, absolulty no condensation:D

There are no results:D
I was doing 3Dmark benching at 3240, My card was not doing well. My mobo was limiting my FSB to 248. I blew out all 3 of my OSs trying higher FSB, When I blew out the last one I had to give up. No floppy or CD player hooked up for a restore:D

Yea I do like it. I have been useing it on the card. I thought it may decrease memory performance but it doesn't effect it all.
Works great.
Good thinking Fugger.

I guess i dont really get the concept of the siran :confused: saran wrap is a brand name. their product is a piece of plastic that is statically charged, so that it sticks to itself
its used for keeping food fresh by not letting air come in bey completely closing it off with saran
