My first DryIce action... Coldbug :(

[PlatoonSgtElias]

So I bought 10Kg of DryIce but couldnt find liquid for it so I got our very own 80% Vodka Talu Viin :D
But what happened... is my Opteron144 coldbugger? I mean I couldnt even go to windows with -26c but with -5c i could... with +5c i could bench 3.2GHz stable but when it got higher it hanged.. if it went below -5c it hanged [evil] Im selling this :banana::banana::banana::banana:. I but in my firends Venice 3200+ and whoilaa.. -26c no hang... benched at 3400MHz and so on... i mean im mad but at least I now know that benching with dryice is too easy :-P
Some pics for u guys.

How does the GTX run without a mem IC? And why is your tube 5' tall?

[piotres]

CAB2E Opty ?

;)

[PlatoonSgtElias]

I donno.. do all Optys have coldbug? If not then wich dosent.. i wanna buy a new one... 146
And what do u mean by mem IC??
Tube is tall because havent got time to lower it :P

[killingspreez]

you did use this crappy vodka for benching? no wonder there's all this ice at the tube....the water of the vodka freezes and then you get lower temps man!

next time stick to ethanol or better aceton! and take <95% concentration

mfg

[PlatoonSgtElias]

LoL, yeah I wanted those but I cand get them anywhere :S just unbelivble.

[afireinside]

Your 7800GTX is missing a ram chip... How does it run?

[Jort]

he has 2 gtx's:)

[T_M]

3 women in the room and you are playing with computers?!?!?

;)

And the comment about CAB2E opty is irrelevant, 99% of Opty's are coldbugged, and around -25C idle seems to be the magic number

[einCe]

wow in that 5th pic your board is bending kinda hard dont ya think?

[gloatlizard]

damn
2 things:
like t m said ''3 women in the room and you are playing with computers?!?!?''
:s you have not noticed that they were annoying:D?
and one more ugly thing:D
that girl next to you seems to watchin' very interested you container:S
watch out LOL

[PlatoonSgtElias]

rofl, thats my friend :D this is me ;) http://www.zone.ee/wrc2006/1/DryIce_event_2006_January6-7/DryIce_4.JPG
And I can have all the action with women later too lol.

Wow in estonia overclocking must be much cooler than it is here. *thinks girlfriends reaction when I said "I cant wait to graduate so I can make some real money and own atleast enough parts to rebuild my rig twice."*

:lol: :ROTF:

At least in the neighbour country Latvia it is the conventional stuff all over - you better do not mention your wife anything about overclocking :D

@Platoon...Run it with ACPI Multiprocessor and you'll be fine:)

[da-key]

@Platoon...Run it with ACPI Multiprocessor and you'll be fine:)

That will keep the Cold bug away?

[Dumo]

That will keep the Cold bug away?Heres CABNE 150GPMW.....for sure no cold bug @ -94C evap. temp or -58C cpu core temp....htt@274 :)....with ACPI Multiproc enabled for extra heat load.

Nah, every cpu is different but many Opterons have cold bug. I guess you was just unlucky.

[Revage]

Dumo. how can i enable the ACPI Multiprocessor on win xp ?

[PlatoonSgtElias]

I read somewhere how to enable it but forgot where... Futuremark forums... 2k1 thread... but what thread lol

[Jort]

go to system,hardware, ...management?

select computer, then modify drivers or something, then i want do choose myself(advanced)
do not search, i will ... and select acpi multiprocc.

;)
