Low cost DIce/LN2 Pot

[BAGR_001]

Hi, I´m interested in extreme overclocking and I made my first DIce/LN2 pot a short time ago. I´m thinking about updating my project. So I want to ask you, what is your opinion of my pot and what would you propose to improve. I've used alumunium for that, because it is very cheap material. I made backplate and mounting kit for installation to socket 478, 775 and 1366. I tried it on some CPUs with DIce and I was very pleased from the temperatures. The lowest temperature with acetone was about -85°C and stable temperature with Q9550 at 4,35GHz with 1,9V was about -65°C. Production cost about 70$ with some insulation material and complete mount kit with backplate, 30$ is amount of work for turner. So, price of this pot is 100$ + shipping and if you would to buy this pot, send me Personal Message. Thanks BAGR

really nice pot for 100$
I think it will be grate for ln2 too

Thanks. I want to try it with LN2, but I must borrow Dewar somewhere and it is problem :-(

I thought dry ice only went down to about -78c?
-65c @ 1.9v with a quad? Amazing

It was on DIce with a lot of acetone :-D

Its a nice pot

I think that -65C on 4,35GHz 1,9V quad is impossible. Maybe on copper pot, but even I don't think so. Using more acetone doesn't improve your temps What thermometer do you have? Maybe here is the problems with temp readings.

Dry Ice with Acetone=chemical reaction, isn't it?

This temperature was in IDLE and I haven´t had thermometer yet. This temperature was measured in BIOS and I don´t know, if it was absolutly right...:-(

Prolly shoulda mentioned that first off, can't get away with embellishment round these parts. but u can mispell words all day ^^^^^^^^^^

[teyber]

also Where was the probe?

nice pot

Don't use DICE/LN2 if You are going to insulate like that: http://picasaweb.google.com/ocbluest...99852399120514
Air gets under neoprene and condensation is quick to come...
Use kneader eraser: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=201916

2ceemic:this is only an idea how it will look

[ceemic]

Ok

[madmax999]

nice POT
i never worked with DICE (just LN2) but i hope that i will soon...

[Blue Storm]

this week we will have meeting, where we will have LN2

[pxhx]

It looks really good, but I think it should be shorter...

[BAGR_001]

It looks really good, but I think it should be shorter...

Yes, maybe, but for LN2 is higher pot better ;-). In next version I´ll make thinner walls (5-7mm)

[ceemic]

Yes, maybe, but for LN2 is higher pot better ;-)

Can You explain why?

[ownage]

F1 pots are not high, so is higher better?

[BAGR_001]

I haven´t practice with LN2, but my friend told me: "The higher pot is better for LN2, because if LN2 is boiling, it is splashing and if you´ll have higher pot, the LN2 will not splash out from pot."

I don´t know, if it is right, I never tried LN2. I think, it is good reason.

That's not the reason to make high POTs. If you know how to use LN2 correctly, it would not splash out.

Bullet92, You're right
