If two heads are better than one, are three heads better than two?

You need to tell me when to stop

A friend of mine suggested we try to make an octopus

There goes the neighborhood.

well i think the owner will get it cool in california

haha man what a power unit

Thereâ€™s not much to see but I'll take more for you in the morning.

I havent seen runmc so excited since that time when that cat and the evap and poof.
Damn good times.

Cryo-tek, once again your completely freaking amazing.
And nice workspace.

That's not a workspace....that's his office....and if you think that's nice, you should see the rest of the place

Cryotiger cooling head

I knew that I saw something similar a long time ago, in a galaxy far away.

Ha! thats close, but im thinking cabtube right in the evap chamber. that gives me an idea.

me dead

single compressor and -150C is just nuts

**bazx** · 05-02-2006, 01:03 PM

cryo i have a Q. would it be safe to put a lil bit of argon in with some 402a
in an SS

thanks baz

well, dont forget about your ram, we need that running at -150 also you know

and also the power mosfets.... yes........ *shifty eyes* anything else on a PC that needs to be cooled?

as for the drinks, i think we want them to still be liquad, so you could just wrap the suction line around a drink holder or something, casue well -100 drink is abit to cold....

hehe anyways... back on topic. with auto cascades, would it be possible to fit them into really small spaces and still be able to move about a 200watt heat load at -50 to -100?? such as a small pc in a big case, plus the autocascade?

It will not immediatly kill you but it won't gain any load temps either

More like... try it bazx

Argon is cheap so it isn't expensive experiment really :P Worst case scenario is higher discharge pressure.... and bit loss of temp

**kayl** · 05-03-2006, 03:29 AM

i think berkut tried r134a and argon myth and confirmed its a myth

bottle and regulator isn't cheap...

and as you can see argon doesn't even affect load temp on the autocascade.

not so sure that it doesnt affect load temp

unknown road is right. The argon won't help, your systems not cold enough. You could try some R13, R23, R503 or R170.

freezing the mosfets wouldnt really do much, they are made to run at over 70c, if you can keep them at about room temp thats enough.

thanks for the reply

of the gases listed which would you think would improve my temps if mixed with 402a

and i say 402a as i already 12kg

thanks baz
