Awesome stuff Charlie!
Were your fans running? LIke reject said... maybe the fans were trying to push the liquid and drawing too much current... blew a fan header or more in the process. Jus a guess though.
Also, I've heard (yeh, it could be all sheeet for all i know) that BIOS chips dont like the cold too much...
HOw much was the non-conductive fluid?
Xtreme adventure charlie :toast:
great experience, how cold was the oil??(the cooler it got)
you could have everything under oil and no fans maybe, if the temp was low enough.
p.d. is abit the one that would try to break 4ghz?? with the fatality mobo??
charliee!!! thats FU(|=!nG AWESOME!! nice to have people like you in this forum WOW! THATS SOME ExTREME OVERCLOCKING!!! :banana: :D I love it!!
Why not attach a passive heatsink on the videocard, and then use a submergible pump (intended for watercooling) to pump a stream of cool liquid onto it and the GPU heatsink?
PS: Cool overclock!!
Now that Awesome!!
omg ~3.7+Ghz is very sweet for athlon :cool:
Haven't seen that much before.
it isnt athlon, athlon died a while ago :)Quote:

great stuff to read charlie.
I was just smiling ear to ear reading and looking at all that, cause it just kept getting better and better. Keep going, your so close, first try is always the learning run, same like it was when you mess with dry ice the first times ;)
:D Hey Charlie - good luck for next time, how many dollars did Ya blow away ???
:toast:
Wanna try that out too :slobber: Looks fun!
:up: sounded like a lot of fun - I´d enjoy reading about and was actually expecting a new WR :stick:
No seriously you did retrieve some very nice clocks anyway :) :slobber:
Ha,ha,ha...........You are crazy charlie :D
NICE work you did there..........It's petty you got unlucky though...........Next time you'll be lucky....... :)
nice work! Keep working on this... :)
awsome charlie!!! good luck next time!!
if board was the problem why not trying LN2 on CPU only?!
Amazing
Very fun to read aswell :)
too bad your hardware gave up... howmuch hardware do you nutcrackers destroy with your extreme ways?
anyways, hope too see you brake that record real soon :stick: :D
Wow that is some crazy stuff man.. Hope you get another stab at it soon enough.. Would be great if you could get the WR. We all know you have been trying for it for a while now.
Opp, where did this rumor come from? The OC fairy?
Good Show Charlie :)
Way to go Charlie. This is without a doubt the most Xtreme thing I have ever seen. Keep it up, and may the force be with you :D
lets hope it was the mobo and not the CPU that died... the $$$... the pain...
:D But beware of that blank expression on Your face shown at Your avatar..... :toast:Quote:

Takes forever to bench this way, but its the only way I dont experience cold boot probs or dead hardware.
Charlie, that is some xtreme work :toast: and so sorry to hear about your rig. I know it's crushing when things happen like that.
3600+ or even 3700+ bench stable would be insane.
Whoaaa, that's amazing. Too bad you weren't able to boot again - you had the WR in your hands there :(
How much does this oil stuff cost?
Hehe , you are one crazy guy Charlie :D
Hope u u get better luck next time.
