I talked to Chilly about that and I may be wrong. He doesn't really know EXACTLY what's happening in those HX's but his guess is that when the unit's charged with more low pressure gasses than high, the LP gas will fill more than one HX and thereby making the HX useless. Definately doesn't do that now (note the FSB) ;)Quote:

Tom Holck's beast is a dual-compressor cascade (although it does perform outrageously for only two compressors). Mine's a SINGLE 1 horsepower, 6 heat-exchanger, space-eating moster :p:Quote:

ouch, the caps aint gunna like that
wow, thats COLD
how big is that? that must be loud )
Time to break out the heater....
Chilly, will you give us more details? compressor? gasses?
Gettin chilly there huh ;) Looks like my x800pro:

I never had a frost over issue on my dfi nf4, even with less insulation. When I'd let it sit at -73c tube for 20 minutes while screwing with GPU tube I'd frost a bit on the heatsink but that's it. Are you running IHS on? That may be why... Transfers cold a lot more. As soon as I took the shim off my x800pro all the frosting issues went away.
Yup the IHS is still on. Another oddity I've noticed with this auto are the evap temps. The other day, I was running superpi 8m and before the test started, my evap was @ -72C idle. The fully loaded temps only crept up to -68C......a 4C degree delta :confused:BTW - this was @ 1.65Vcore.......Quote:

I thought your Auto was pretty good before but now i'ts just amazing. I don't know if I've ever seen frost like that from an Autocascade, or if I ever will again.
You must be very proud, mate :toast:

All credit goes to Chilly1.....ATM, I'm running 32m @ 1.71Vcore and -64C Evap LOADED.....:cool:Quote:

Awesome cooling and results
I need to see some pics of the whole unit please :)
Not much to see, but here's a few pics:Quote:

Some captube craziness:

HX's are hidden here. This area sits atop the bottom level and literally doubles the size of the unit:

the gases must cost a bomb!!
Cool none the less
AWESOME Steven - Man I have to see this baby one of these days in person!!!
i see it has temps similar to dry ice.thats nice ;)
the question is, (except the display of skills and knowledge) does it worth to make such a complex system, or simply add another compressor make a classic 2stager ?
many :toast: to chilly for this unit
Worth the size and money and time spent? NO. Worth investigating, yes. After all, this unit is good way to figure out how really autocascade should be done and once we get firm ground like we have done on single stage and cascade, could become viable option for autocascade. Not everyone want cascade, but might not be 100% happy with single stage either. For someone like me who wants cold temp but want to keep things quiet and reasonable, even 10c improvement by going autocascade might be viable option. This could be the future of high end vapo phase change cooling using single compressor :)
