How long does a P4 on LN last?

[TheMASK]

how long does a P4 extremely overclocked, say a 2.6C @ 4GHz, last on Liquid Nitrogen cooling? A friend of mine says it wont last more than a few hours. i thot it shud last atleast a few months.

ALso, cud u provids some links to share with my friend? tnx in advance.

How much cooler would liquid nitro be over a system like Vapocool?

I know what everyone's been wondering - 2^33634943-1 IS NOT PRIME. Now, wasn't that worth running <A HREF="http://www.mersenne.org" target="_new">Prime95</A> for a month to know?

Umm, wow, that's close to the point where the electrons around the neutrons and protons stop moving...

If that's how cold Nitrogen can be when it's liquid, I wonder how cold must it be for it to become solid...

For N2 melting point -209.9deg C 63.25deg K
boiling point -195.8deg C 77.55deg K
The solid is easy to make from the liquid by lowering the pressure of a container with the liquid N2 with a vacuum pump until the resultant boiling causes the residual LN2
to solidify.
