The Liquid Nitrogen Cooled Computer

Sometimes when you are running at very fast speeds, a heat sink and some cooling fans just doesn’t cut it. The people over at Tom’s Hardware needed a cooling solution fit for their 5ghz over-clocking project and not very many solutions can come close to liquid nitrogen.

According to THG, they actually attained speeds of 5.25Ghz which requires immense cooling power considering the large amount of heat generated in such a small surface area. This is where liquid came in to the picture to keep their Pentium 4 from frying under pressure.

The pictures below explain it all, and you can get the full scoop here.
