Cooling BlackOps: Air & Water

[saaya]

That black "NB LN2 Pot" is a crazy idea, sucks.

hmmm really?
what exactly is the problem when using it for ln2?
shamino did it a few times and said it worked well, as long as you insulate the board properly (since the nb doesnt produce that much heat its easy to freeze half the board by pouring too much ln2 onto the nb )

im open for suggestions and will forward any feedback to improve the next cooling version, so let me know if you dont like something and tell me wy and how to make it better!

BlackOps' NB LN2 cooler is an innovative idea, that's clear. Thanks to the team... Actually works good as a water cooling unit, even more then other NB coolers and cools Mosfets and SB as well. Under LN2, sure we insuate board. But i wonder how could we insulate under the NB, Mosfet and SB section? A neoprene seal for NB and SB chips maybe, but inconvenient for passive air cooling. Dismounting whole cooler, isolating this area and mounting cooler again? That would be a crazy action. Is there any pics of shamino's LN2 work? Would be kinda guide for sum peepz there...

Sorry for "Crazy", sounds not friendly lol...

There are some people with NB LN2 Pot issues:
Saaya, it would be great showing us a guide...

Well my Blackops arrived yesterday and sure is a sweet motherboard.

But only problems that I can spot right off the bat is the cooling tower for the NB. I setup my F1 pot and the tower and there isn't a great deal of room for insulation. Not real sure how to go about insulating the NB tower anyway.

Well I can go with water cooling on that, will still have problems running my chiller with that also.

Anyway, full details of the MB can be found over on XS.

Was just playing around with it and setting up pots
