placing your video card inside the stanford linear accelerater, where its 0.001c ;)
ok...what about a not so extreme solution?for example an extreme but commercial solution ( i heard about pelt+water)

I think some people here have used their phase change to cool video cards.

:ROTF:
LN2 on gfx is very extreme, due to the way that things are, the gpu heats up and cools down rapidly when benching, as much as a 10c drop the instant you exit 3d mode, and thats on air. this causes the LN2 to splatter when u top up the container and it can get on the mobo/ cards and even worse, you
just use a pelt + wc and you up to go;)
200W pelt would be very good.

With just a 172w pelt driven at 12v (that's about only 90w) I was able to reach 500mhz core on my 6800Ultra card, not tried yet but at 24v it should rock.
