Ok, so I'm gonna use dry ice & methanol for cooling, but it is impossible for my pump to get it around my circuit :(
Now I thought to use a reservoir out of copper directly on my Radeon core... So I'll need a little spacer from copper on the reservoir to go directly onto the core (to avoid all those nasty condensators on the radeon)
Can anyone make a plan or something for it? Or give me some tips so I don't kill the hardware (and myself :p)


Thanks!

What kind of pump are you using?? and hose.

Im using the big danner mag drive 7 , and 5/8 hose. 3/8 hose will never do it no matter what pump.

Kinda like a fast river wont freeze, you gotta keep it moving.

I don't follow why your pump can't do it?Does to have to pump 6 feet up or something? ;)
Remember, methanol has an extremely low freezing point.Also make sure you have good hose clamps, as methanol is thin and leaks easy.

and why are you using dry ice again? Unless you like having to put in dry ice every so often.....why are you doing this again?
