IMO anyone who tries any of that water cooling or other such idiocy in an attempt to ridiculously overclock a fine machine is an utter fucking moron. Some of the pictures I've seen ... goons.

I saw a picture where someone used NITROGEN. As in the shit from T2.

Well, that should cool it pretty well.
BTW I heard most of the higher-end mainframes and supercomputers sue liquid ntrogen cooling.

Yeah- it's just the dumbass overclockers who bludgeon their machines by pushing them to ridiculous levels and then going to ludicrous lengths to keep them cool that makes me sick- it's so pathetic.

The guy also did this:

I mean, if you value performance so much might as well buy some new hardware instead of pumping the oneyou have like you have something for it.

Gah, someone needs out of the gene pool.

Yah, this is what happens when you pee into the gene pool.
And he actually tried to REUSE the wetted components.
Idiot.

it is possible. the mobo in my #3 comp was salvaged from a mud puddle behind a shop after it had been there for days. i cleaned it off, let it dry for about 2 days, tested it and it came right up. works flawlessly so far too and it's got a number of hours on it since i got it. CMOS battery's still good too, which is amazing considering that muddy water is rather nicely conductive.

btw, i think it's time to chlorinate the gene-pool again...

That's one popular thread. In roughly 24 hours, it has been viewed >36,000 times!!
Although it won't make any sense if you don't first read the thread Shinova posted, there is a
thread about what happened the next day.
edit: for the record (this will make sense later), I did, for several seconds in fact. More than I care to admit

nive, I guess he now has a paper wieght...
Then again, When I was living in the Desert, I did some very drastic things to my computer to keep it running in 130*f temps. (Or should I say, I actually attached a radiator to the external fan, and used CO2 to try and keep the whole case cool.

Talking You must be really honest now! Did u really believe that I drowned my PC?
There are no maybe's or kinda's in this poll. You either didn't believe for even a fraction of a second or you must vote yes!
I must say that I have never had so much fun on the net in my entire life (apart from playing "Tidy the tools" on Bob the Builder's web site)
Thanks to you all for giving me my fifteen minutes of fame as the stupidest person on the net My Mam is so proud!!!

Trying to be seen as the biggest moron on the web isn't exactly something to be proud of.
