Insulation complete and tuned. It sound so nice, very quiet.
It slams hard to -90c, rough estimate of 30 seconds from ambiant.
The third stage is tuned so nicely that the compressor freezes back at 10 psi. It pulls down into a vacuum and the compressor never got warm.
Batteries charging on digital camera, pictures inc. :banana:
Thanks Chilly1 for another fine cascade and awesome birthday present.
luky you:)
cant wait anymore my cascade from him....
good luck fugger with your new toy!! We r waiting for some nice numbers.... ;)
That's one hell of a bday present! :eek:
Congrats!
Now thats a temp worth the extra stage, additional 20C is great :D
Chilly1's standard fopr sure
I seen it hit -100.3 on the 2nd stage if i'm not mistaken so -122 with the 3rd stage kicked in is definately crazy. Have fun with that thing, it's a pretty piece of equipment :)
/me gives chilly1 a cookie for his cascade making skills
R14?
Pics pics pics! :).
Here are a few images, only thing left to do before installing is secure the caps and power cords.
R14 soon. Running R402/1150/1150
R402 B or A ?
Damn if its R402A than that poor compressor must have some real hell. What are the temps on the HX'es ?
second stage is ~-86c condensing temp, the first stage does not have a temp sensor on it. All three stages are fully adjustable.
ahh, beautiful machine
waa waa weee waaa......a beauty.....
congrats fugger
very, very nice system!
too bad i had birthday 2½ months ago without letting chilly know :D
i foresee a charge to the top of the orb. go get em. that is an awsome machine you got there. have fun with it.
hmmm, I heard that Las Vegas had a mild power shortage?ah, figures :P
happy bday fugger, awesome cascade
Defining Xtreme! Nice FUGGER! Compliments to Chilly1's Skills!
chilly1, can you tell us what kind of temps you were getting on the first stage with r402a?
woah nice a chilly there -122C :eek:
congrats to you FUGGER for being lucky to have that beatiful piece of hardware that chilly1 makes...
when are we gonna see some results? can't wait...
nice temps, that really is a piece of art the cascade hey.
hours of planning
The gasses in the second and third stages are only test gasses and it got to -122C. The R14 is on it's way here now. May get a lot colder!
DATA:
First run
First stage R507/290---- 98/2 -38C
Second stage R503/R1150---- 60/40 -85C
Third stage R1150/290--- 99/1 -122C
Final proposed
First stage R402---- 100 -44c Done
Second stage R1150/290---- 98/2 -90c
Third stage R14/R12 --- 95/5 -135C
Metering devices
First stage--- Parker model "C", Capacity "AA", Charge "SZ"
Second stage---Sporlan model "ADRI", adj. range "0/55"
Third stage--- Parker model "A4", range "0/90", capacity "1/4-2"
wow -135c now that sounds good.
r14 boils at -128c what sorta vacuum will ya need to run to get to -135c
now that ya got some r14 and r12 all ya need is some r13 and you can make a autocascade. :toast:
do you think that you will make one chilly
2 to 4 inches... -.05 to .1 bar
I just did a test start (for runs this weekend) on the cascade and everything went perfect.
-110c in under 60 seconds.
Insane capacity and passing -120c in about 3 minutes
bottomed out at -129c, with a little more adjustment > -130c should not be a problem.
wow you got a 6 degree gain with r402a. Sounds like a good option.
How did you get your hands on R14? I thought it was banned in the US a couple of years ago? But if you are a HVAC/R tech you have those special contacts? ;)
Btw, what refrigerant replaced R14?
R14 is a florocarbon and is not being phased out.
Wow, amazing work. :toast:
are these loaded or unloaded temps?
Unloaded
Happy Birthday FUGGER........ :D :toast:
Niceeee......... ;)
I was wondering, is it possible to make a special block to use a cascade on RAM? Has anyone done this?
Got one too hard t insulate developing a moisture proof case...
I believe that chilly1 did this but iam not sure if the benefit was wortth the effort.
nice cascade fugger!

Only stumbled across this site today.. Im amazed! :)
Makes my watercooling and Vapo LS efforts seem pretty weak! heh
Vi11an, Welcome to XtremeSystems!
Lots of good projects in the works here, stay a while and look around. We are XTREME.
So many ideas to play with..
I can feel my wallet getting lighter by the minute ;)
My wallet was on the last probe to mars and I am sure it is pretty much floating out there in intestellar space!Quote:

Finished insulation. looking really good and a perfect fit.
wow, very clean work, do you think it will be usable for 24/7 operation? ive heard of problems with cascades running too long
My original CPU cascade ran for 5 days straight at Comdex in the Abit booth.
Gonna go eat and then come back to connect the video card.
This cascade is not for long term operation yet. I will know more when I see how well this housing contains -120c
I am already covering a 4"x4" area around the CPU, 1/2" below and 3/4" above.
The cold will very likely travel under the neopreen thourgh the PCB. A simpel low power heating device will hold from the other components.
http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...t=heating+wire
In that thread, heating wire is discussed
I am running 1/2" think neoprene and a 3/4" particle board behind the motherboard. the motherboard is bolted down. The studs are bolted into the particleboard.
The only place I expect to see condensation is on the exposed white PVC shroud.
That is godly!
The neoprene is more then sufficient, but the PCB gets cold. We had problems with dry-ice. The PCB got gold even next to the memmory slots. This could also be the cold gas that is falling over the container so i'm not sure about that one.
Ooops I think I crapped my pants.
Booting into windows @ 5.62Ghz and running Pi close to 5.7Ghz
CPUz is not reading multiple correctly, it is at 319Mhz on the 5.7Ghz screen shot.
SuperPi @ 5.7Ghz :slobber: :slobber:
whoa.... can't wait for some PIFast and maybe 3D lovin' ....
Great job, FUGGER :thumbsup:
Nice Cascade and nice results FUGGER :toast:
How did you manage to do a 400+ FSB ?.. OR is it a bug?
What kind of mods have you made on the board to make it run THAT fast? :stick:
Thumbs up m8 for a NICE result. :slobber:
Its a bug on the FSB, brand new unmodded board.
1.75v vcore @ -110c
Creeping up on 6Ghz...
Wow - Impressive stuff. Hows you temps at 5.9 ?
:D :D :DQuote:

Fugger,
Got any pics of the mobo while its begin frozen? ;)
Nice clocks also M8 :)
fugger that has to be the highest oc i have seen so far woW
Holy Sh|t, that's a really powerful system. if your cascade can hold out for prolonged use (like that other one you mentioned) at 6ghz+ at -110c...i will be stunned. that's what DIY is all about! i mean, ive seen THG do 6ghz, but they needed LN2 and that was only for screenshots, this is a daily-use 6ghz machine...
not daily ;)
Just a benching rig
This system will run 24/7 and the board was not freezing beyond the insulation only a little condensation... Needs a case with humidity control...
and VERY deep pockets for the power bill!!
Interesting.

THG has not done 6ghz, 5ghz, according to THE STORY ..
The Number of people who have seen 6ghz can be counted on one hand with a couple fingers left over..
macci & The Stilt (the first) @ 6009, LINK
Memesama @ 6042 LINK
Fugger Current WR run @ 6302 LINK
I'm sure we'll be seeing more in the future, but for now thats it...
FUGGERS World Record run was on the beast in this thread :toast:
seem like the E0 stepping own;)

FUGGER, you are just the man.
A 3 stage for a birthday present? hmmmm oooooooh chilly lol I turn 21 in august lol. j/k :)
That is a nice unit FUGGER have fun playing with it. kudo's to chilly1 for yet another amazing creation.
GOOD GOD that is a great piece of equipment. Absolutely sick benches too! Great work sir!
:lastweek:
this thread is from november
wow i just noticed, i really just got obessed with studying cascades. hehe
threads are saved for future referance,right! :rolleyes: or why wouldn't they just delete them.Quote:

This beast is still running great but showing its age, around the world twice, live demo's for Intel, and a severely punished machine. It sits in my living room with power cords running to different breakers in the apartment.
Its about to get an upgrade to shoot for much lower temps. I have the parts for the bionic rebuild ready and Reggie is about to assist in the rebuild. I am happy with all of the heat exchangers, so it might just be compressors and recharge.
I will do my best to get Reggie to come back and take care of business here, hopefully revive a lot more phase builds.
Just a note in the life of this unit.
You still have that prescott in this thread :D i assume you didn't reached that 6ghz?
Last I saw he did reach 6ghz, 6.3G infact.....and what a cascade, worked for 5 Years, hope chilly1 comes back to being active again....Quote:

I talked with Reggie today, trying hard to get him to return to building and taking care of business.
I will visit him again tomorrow
Try to be positive? And it's not as if he scammed anyone, some things happen that are out of our control :(
Better yet, put yourself in his shoes for a moment :up:
Still running strong, RIP Reggie.
