    Xtreme Edition LN Cooler by Otterauge

    Here is a genuine act of force of time has claimed. I wanted to build an LN cooler with a 150mm height, Ø74mm and a 4 Kg.
    Large interior space without the ground to make a lot thicker.


    The result is the 4kg and I think a well-designed interior space without a large capacity to lose.




    sorry for my english

    That looks incredibly pretty but it has a lot of wasted mass. Was talking to a thermodynamics professor and he figures anything more than ~1.5-2 inch(45-60mm) away from the heat source is wasted mass.

    I see things differently and there are 28 ~ 50mm

    interesting design.. i've never seen such thing before how, does it perform, have you tested this yet ?

    It's really nice work man!!

    But if you are benching at -150*C and you will have crash/bsod/restart when yours CPU have CBB ~-100*C or more... have fun with it :P

    well I dont know much about LN2 cooling but I have machined quite a few things and it is a good looking block despite performance lol good luck

    what's that glowing blue light? if they were LED's for bling, that would be totally useless for benching.

    no is just the structure better to see it as a honeycomb structure with a connectionless

    Thats piece of machining art there


    Here is bit offtopic but anyway...

    I think containers have reached its peak as there have been several very nicely machined massive designs with lot of surface area. Couple of years ago there was debate whether solid containers can have internals at all

    Im anxious to see the next step in the ln2/dryice cooling section with more advaced innovations considering ln2 feed and pressure control of the container/block (or perhaps controlling container temperature with additional dummy load). Man with ln2 thermos cup in his hand seems kinda "old" tech doesnt it?

    There might be some business to it too for the one that offers first well thought and working setup which automatically controls the container temperature, lets say +/- 1K for the set up temp. Just little encouragement talk for someone who thinks that could do it

    Interesting design, let us know how it performs.

    Did he forget about thermal conduction? Mass is there to stabilize a container, balance that with good pull-down properties and you have a winner.

    I don't think he made that mistake.

    I used it. Idle -190.00 Load -189.8 It was the Lightest Pot I have ever used to date, less mass than my cheap home made DI pot.......

    On topic

    That is a very interesting concept and sweet looking pot, I dare say that thing will not budge a degree loaded......Not to mention who needs mounting hardware. Looks like you could place it on CPU and rip.....

    Thank´s all guys,

    I think there must be a total approach. not only the ground is responsible for everything. The grooves in my other coolers bring a faster and faster transition response

    This has a really large interior area with a concentration towards the center.

    Cones in the middle, in my opinion, too slow and tend to be more often in the cold bug lands.

    These are my thoughts


    thank's for google translate

    Man your work is a piece of art to say the least.You've made it a science and you 're definately THE PROFESSOR!!!

    Lots surface area close to the heatsource is all you need. Having heavily machined copper 4 inches from the heatsource isn't useful. We only have these thick bases because we can't quickly remove the heat being generated due to insufficient surface area for the respective heatload. Take a look at direct-die evaporators that are very successful. Gosmeyer's latest evap, a twist on eleven's design would work quite well in a forced LN2 application. Think it needs to be a little wider but it'd kick ass Anywho, I'm going off topic but I'm going to try and get a mass evap fabbed up and see what it'll do on LN2.

    Looks very nice

    You better haven't got a CB on your CPU. If you hit it, you will porbably have to wait for 24h until you can bench again
