Built the first two containers last night and the borttom one ( is my new SLI DI/Ln2 inprogress I will be posting up a few more pics as I figure out the rest of it. It is 1.2 inches thinsc and 2 inches wide at the base.. havent figured it all out yet.

How much Chilly because those look beautiful. So Shiny

Hey chilly, so I still managed to buy the "old" design? :) Damn, I should have been less impatient :rolleyes: :D

The sli-model is very nice and simple. Reminds slightly of my prototype sli-containers. I just dont quite have the equipment to make these as properly i wanted.

I think the your spiral base will work great in that position. If you have mangle you could make square type of copper pipe instead of brass and it would be great. I made my "square" profile with a hammer and its the way nobody wants to go :D

Yay does that mean youll starts on my dice tube soon :)

Are these still using the same chilly1 block design? Any chance your going to try building a solid container?

Yeah, save for minimal improvements, I'm starting to think the chilly1 block design has gone as far as it's able to with "traditional" tube making designs

We are making even more changes in mounting.
Expect to connect to all CPU's and GPU's. We have universal kits available in quantity now.
I will do a special run in clear lexan, im sure a lot of people would like to see if any condenstation is building up around the socket.

Well there is a couple of more improvements comming... I got a very good maachinest!

Niiiiiiiice, I like the rectangular slim design, good for current DFI nf4's working in SLI.

NEw blocks on the way currently out \
The new Rev_e.02 second batch in on the way.. delayed due to the problems in the gulf a few days and Apocalipsis you are getting one PM me your address please...
These things are real small final pics on them later today...

Why are the tubes still made of copper? That's wasting some of the capacity. Why not steel or some other less conductive, but still cheap and easily workable, metal?

09-05-2005, 05:49 PM
steel rusts, I am using some brass.. I can get stainless but it has a different rate of expansion

Well I picked up one of the GPU tubes from chilly recently. It mounted up nice and with the insulation he supplies moisture-proofing the card is pretty easy. Under DI/Acetone an X850 @ 1.78v idles @ -67° and coming out of a loaded Nature run it's -51° Thats a little more of a idle/loaded temp fluctuation than I like but I'm having some good results.

How thick is the copper in the tube?
Are these the new blocks?
Those are some pretty good temps, considering the outer structure cant be very thick at all, so it must not hold temps at all.. so the block is doing all the work

I don't know what block it uses, I can only assume it's a new one as I just got this. Also don't think the block is doing all the work but more than 50% yes. More mass on the block/base would definately help hold temps within a narrower range.

Well with most dry ice containers alot of the temps are held by the tubing as well as the base
I've never seen one of those GPU tubes before, but it doesn't look like there thick enough to help hold temps really
Which brings me to the conclusion that those temps are almost all from the block

Thats true... but! Allmost every container is brazed. so the tube has nothing to do with heattransfer! only with a solid container you can say that the tube can heatransfer the load!

More mass gives you more stable temps but you will have much warmer temps due to the thickness of the base.

I don't mean a thicker base actually chilly rather lengthening the block so it has more mass. There is room in the tube to add another inch in length, maybe a bit more. That way when it's under load it has:
a) More mass to offset the heat transfer.
b) More surface area to help keep the block equalized with the liquid acetone/DI mixture or LN2.
Don't get me wrong your tube kicks ass, I just offering some idea's to help make it a better performer :)

yes it does add to teh cooling capacity to add a little length.. Just my blocks are only 1 length
I had a few long ones I did use

Well adding mass isnt always a good idea..!

Well what would you suggest then?
Waus-mod
09-13-2005, 02:51 PM
Well the mass is then right above the core, because too much mass of the copper would not effect for better cooling. Chilly's blocks are great and have enough surface for a good heatload. am i right?

Did you notice the temperature differences between idle and load I posted?
Waus-mod
09-13-2005, 03:25 PM
Well if its the double of the chilly then it will be to much i think. IF you do that.
I just think a solid tube with a bulb in it is the best cooling for ln2 or di. look as example to the mousepot.

I am also working on some improvmants on the thermal convectioon factors I am gong to start installing a small riser tube connected to teh middle of the bolock this shoud signifcantly improve the load/unload delta.

"Thinking" and knowing via testing are two different things;)
Of course a solid tube (with more mass) is going to perform better but I bought this tube. I have yet to see a solid GPU tube, have you? I'm simply trying to help refine this design that already works very well.

That sounds very good chilly, looking forward to seeing your new version(s).
