Ice cooling - am I a genius?


Recommended Posts

For all you nay-sayers, you've obviously never heard of:

MAGICAL ICE CUBES!!!

I believe that PureLegend is a genius, simply from the fact that every 3rd word in his posts is either smart or genius.

I'm pretty sure I'm kidding, I think. (Y)

:laugh: @Icecapades

Pure Legend, this idea is genius. Make sure you explain it in detail so we can all steal the patent when you finish.

Encouraging a person in his obviously flawed concept should be a crime.

Magical ice cubes! How very smart, must be a genius who created this smart idea.

I am Genius on ICE??!! How smart is that! :D

My fist is pretty sure you're kidding too :p

Lol @ the topic.

Anyways, your idea isnt bad AT ALL, the principles sucks, ok :p, but the materialized idea exists already as Phase Change for the refrigerator idea, and Dry Ice Cooling for the ice idea...

Dry Ice its used in a copper tube, before you must insulate (im not sure of the word) the motherboard so it dosent freezes, then you put the Ice in the Tube and drop Alcohol over it, so it goes into reaction and cools :)

How about a CPU in space (really, in space)? :D

What is the temperature of space? Is it constant? (obviously when its not in sunlight)

What? That's news to me. It can be anything below 0 C.

I'll come to PureLegends defense by asking a stupid question, but I thought that water freezes at 0c? Hence why Antartica is like.. cold and stuff.. cos its always in minus.. you know..

Although space could be considered relativley cold without the presence of light... Current CPUs have transistors so small that if they aren't sheilded rays outside of the visible spectrum radiation can cause microfluctations in voltages causing parity errors (its enough voltage change to switch the gates).

This is a known problem with space based electonics :)

Plus as the would be generating heat inside its sheild with no easy way to transfer the heat away..... humm :)

"What is the temperature of space? Is it constant? (obviously when its not in sunlight)" well assuming you mean a complete absence of energy and matter it would have no measurable temp but just by taking a measurement you are effecting the space you are measuring. of course that is all realative... If you mean "space" as in the area between us and the moon... there is still a small ambient temperature http://www.astro.ucla.edu/~wright/Eddington-T0.html

From the amount you know, I wouldn't be surprised if you'd been up in space and looked yourself :blink:

a small thing called a neuron (is missing from your idea) .. u might as well get the freon from your fridge, modify the pipes and put them on your cpu and there u go, constant -5C

Geunius :D pure genius :D attempt it before someone else does and get it fully working and then i will say you can go in the book of greatest PC Modders of all time :p

Thing is, if I do go ahead with it, I won't get any help here; I'll get laughed at :laugh:

But if I were to do it, what would I need? I'm thinking just a crappy motherboard bundle, maybe get a case, I could always use my PSU...actually, I would need a case to prove it can save space :D
