mrsinister Posted January 24, 2005 Posted January 24, 2005 I have heard about liquid nitrogen cooling and i know that liquid nitrogen is very very cold, but i forgot about overclocking.... These guys did a little experiment, its pretty sweet. It is in a different language but it translates at the bottom of the page, and there are some good pictures. I have heard people getting 2.6 processors up to like 3.2 but i find their results astonishing. They got their 2.2ghz up to 3.6 o/c'd. Check this out!!! http://www.muropaketti.com/artikkelit/cpu/northwood2200/ln2/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
airman Posted January 24, 2005 Posted January 24, 2005 mmm that's quite old (that page). LN2 has been around for quite a while as well. specially when it says the world record is 3.6 something ghz. they've got 3.8s out now i believe the world record was on THG and it was around 5.5ghz or something...unless i missed somethin that came out recently. but yea....like -92c load mmhmmm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrsinister Posted January 24, 2005 Posted January 24, 2005 Yeah i have read stuff for 5ghz but i saw this first and i was amazed. And yes it is old but i still think it is insane. And by the way i saw your case airman, the black one with the super nice finish and i am impressed Good job on that! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kash Posted January 24, 2005 Posted January 24, 2005 Actually, they've broken 6 GHz using LN2: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showth...55&page=1&pp=25 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamikaze_Badger Posted January 24, 2005 Posted January 24, 2005 Why use LN2 when you can use phase change systems? Less mess. Btw, the THG thing is pretty much a hoax. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kanbeki Posted January 24, 2005 Posted January 24, 2005 Fuggers Three Stager has whooped every Japanese LN2 thus far, 6 something 6.3 maybe don't quote me on that but the wr will contunially be broken so..yah Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vampire Posted January 26, 2005 Posted January 26, 2005 LN2 isnt always that great though, for one if you use it with some athlon 64's, they just wont boot that cold (-196c). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
