A Fridge?

[ravage]

Has anybody ever build a PC inside of a fridge or a freezer?

Why is this not more common?

Condensation, if I need to say more you wouldn't understand.

What about using a freezer to cool a water cooling system?

 

[jumpmaster]

condensation on the tubes and the cpu block might be a problem. maybe if you insulate the tubes well there wont be condensation but i don't know. Oh and using a freezer might freeze the water and prevent water flow.

Hmm, interesting idea, but it would be noisier than air cooling. I can barely hear the PC under my desk but I hear the fridge in the next room when it gets going.

Apart from noise, why would you try this, so you can overclock to 4 GHz instead of 3.8?

Ive heard a few few people on this forum say it doesn't really work that well and the fridge doesn't last very long.

Apparently fidges cant handle having something in them that constantly generates heat it causes them to work to hard and eventually die.

Fair enough.

I did a quick google too and found out that it costs an absolute fortune to run also.

look up phase cooling...easy -45c but a little expensive. $900

My friend did this and first he sprayed some water proof spray or something...Worked for a couple of days but the HD ended up freezing.
