That pc looks a bit... unstabel?

My friends computer had water cooling, he overclocked his processor, AMD Athlon, from 2.2Ghz to 3.2Ghz, he had to get a new processor because his first one blew up, all he had was a normal fan, lol.

Thats the strangest thing ive ever seen. How does it work? Is it jsut cooled water in a bucket geting sucked thru a tube around the tower and back into the bucket? However if it went back in the bucket wouldn't the bucket get hot and the whole computer go boom boom? Yay. Boom Boom. Infact, I hope it does go Boom Boom. I wonder who built it. Looks like some of Bill Gates works. Hes good at that kinda **** stuff.

Thats true, but still, what about the PC asploading?

All it is is cold water instead of a fan, you can just put the following on your cpu intread of a fan and pump cond water throught it, it helps if you have the whole kit too, lol

i think water-cooling is really cool....
think about it ....
i looked at that picture....i felt dangerous....
u see....a water bucket next to a pc is really dangerous...i think...
yes i know a whole water-cooling system is quite expensive....
but safety is quite important for a pc .....
i think a Radiator should replace the bucket....
which can cool down the water quicker...and safer...

if radiator is too expensive...try use a bucket that the water is not open to the surrounding...
i did try to build a radiator by myself b4...with some metal tube...is quite easy if u did metal D&T at school b4....

dun really want to talk so deep about everything...so i stop here...

AMD processors blow up ( burn ) when overclocked unlike Pentium processors which cease to function when they overheat. Most of the Gaming freaks over clock their AMD processors.. I had seen this video on Tom's hardware where they used the similar waterr cooling thing.. but it was more compact and did not include such a large water source. It had a radiator for cooling the water and small diameter pipes. It looked pretty cool..

And there was another one which was ment for servers I guess. They used a compressor inside a real big fat Cabinet and used it too cool the processor. the cool thing is , once that thing was turned on, the BIOS reported the CPU temperature around -34 degree! wink.gif

I don't think so. The oil will boil before it gets hot enough for french fries. Haz.

Anyway, I think the water idea might work. He can pump the water into a flat rectangular glass container and attach the container to the back of the motherboard. The glass will conduct the heat to the water which brings it away. The water does not come into contact with the circuitry and the motherboard remains safe.

However, he will need to replace the bucket with something else of a large surface area so that the water is sufficiently cooled before it goes back to the MB.

Wow, the oil cooled this is so cool! I wonder if you can like fry french fries in there if it gets hot enough lol. But seriously, the computer won't die even doused in oil?

Let me start out by saying that the PC OpaQue mentioned looks a bit typical - aside from the garbege can filled with water. I read the thing on oil cooling - it seems interesting, but not something I would want to try. Water cooling is a pretty efficient way to cool down your computer, but sometimes it's just not for the person.

water cooling is not always component - unfriendly. There are submersed computers too. The liquids usually used are anti freeze and non-conducting. Water is just used, because those liquids dont absorb heat as well. If you use solid copper water blocks witha long waterway, you can cool your PC down pretty well, and possible overclock a TON.

With water in it will not work.

Because the water will split in ions due to electrical current.
So those water ions will become a conductor wich will result in a useless mainbord.

With oil it seems to work, since oil can't split in ions.
The rest is easy to explain :
When the oil heats up, it becomes lighter so I goes to the top.
The cooler oil is heavier so it goes down.
When the oil is on top it comes in contact with the normal air so it gives its heat off to the air just above.


Another advantage of this is that all component are cooled.
Like memory modulles , the mainbord chipset , Video card and so on.
A disadvantage is that a leak can kill everything and it's not easy to make a memory upgrade.

The only question how much oil do you need to cool a system properly, and how long does such things work.

I've never tried it, and possibly will never do it also.
I keep it on air cooling , it's the cheapest and most used.
