use special chemicals not natural air in your system or the water vapour would condense and short circuit the system.

What he said..... :speechless:

Pretty much common sense that you don't mix water and electronics, REGARDLESS of wether or not you know ANYTHING at ALL about computers....

Default fridge pc

or why not just make a box just big enough for the pc and put a window mount ac unit on the box? have it blow cold air into the box, i think a properly tuned and adjusted box and ac unit could easily make the box at least 3C. that would in turn probably make a 30C cpu, even on stock cooling run about 12C.

or an idea that ive always wanted to try just never had the time or a spare blow dryer, is gut the BlowDryer of its heating elements and just have the fan in there, and we all know those suckers can move one **** of a big amount of air in a small amount of time, and get some dryer ducting and duct tape and mount the BD onto the dryer tube and have that mount to the cpu cooler.

but in order for this to work efficently you would have to have a scythe ninja and have the tube upscaled to fit one whole side of the unit and have it blow straight thru it. yes it would be loud, and rather large, but imagine the CFM that it would make, and how efficent it would be!




i wonder if my neighbors got any spare dryer tube and a blow dryer.... i would totaly do it
