On LN2 of course from Japan.

You are limited to what your mind can perceive.

Liquid Nitrogen.

thats some crazy [-peep-], you could loose a hand or a foot with that stuff, btw intel showed a pIV running at 4,68Ghz on their developpers forum so thats the recors for me

Remember the time You used 20Mb harddrives

Wowza, speaks a lot for the headroom 0.13m K7s have. Just like the 0.13m speaks a lot for P4 reaching near 5GHZ. IMO Intel shouldn't be transitioning so early on, wasting all that nice MHZ the 0.13m can still bring.

But still, WOWZA! 3.3GHZ, ouch man. And it did SuperPI. Though I wanted to see some real benchmarks, since I don't know how to measure SuperPI's times and how they compare to other CPUs.

Hey Fugger, will you be attempting that OC with your equipment?

LMAO Never heard something so ridiculous in my life I use Liquid nitrogen every day in a biology laborotory and its not quite like how films potray it ! You can even stick your hand directly into it for a very short period of time and it will do nothing due to the heat of your hand. It is about -160 btw

And yes you could loose a hand but you would have to be a careless as you would be to get electricuted with your PC ?

While the physics of your statement seem to make sense, I'd rather not take the chance myself. I played with LN2 all summer, and I seem to remember frostbite that was caused by splashed LN2 that actually caused a blister... so that's my own personal experience.

Some day, THG-willing, I shall obtain the coveted "Old Hand" title.

:-O

Simply, shocked. All of you are talking about LN2 as something quite normal! Well, the cooler I can get is my freezer :-(

Still using air cooling for my XP 1700+ ...

"Seriously, AMD needs to find a way to turn down the heat generated by their chips."

Actually, the thing that makes them run hotter than Intel chips is the same thing that makes them less expensive than Intel chips. The 80mm squared die size of the Thouroughbred 84mmb of the Tbred B's, and the 128 mm of the Palominos are all smaller than Intel's 131mm squared core. Smaller die means more cores per wafer... it also means less area for heat to be dissipated through... other than the actual materials used and the voltage (which is nearly the same) that's the only difference. AMD has always boasted that their processors are cheaper than Intel's, so I don't see them changing to a larger die to allow for better cooling... I don't see cooling as a huge problem right now anyway... I have an XP2000 with a Palomino core running 96 degrees idle, 107 under full load with a copper heatsink.

same here, we freeze out membrane preparations in liquid nitrogen......i like pouring the excess LN2 all over the floor when i'm finished with it

<font color=blue>"Both Intel and AMD need to find ways to do this. "</font color=blue>

Whatever happened to the quiet PC? My TRS-80, IBM-XT, 286, and 386 machines didn't have fans or heatsinks. OK, the 486 added passive heat sinks, but they are quiet. The only fan was on the power supply.

The Pentium brought the active cooler to the CPU. At the time I thought "what insanity". If a $5.00 fan fails, you can destroy a $600 chip ( the fans were crap then, and the chips expensive).

I have a run of the mill 900MHZ Athlon, and it has 6 fans: HSF, GPU, Northbridge, Intake, Exhaust and power supply. Madness.... I almost yearn for a quiet VIA C3 (almost, I'm not crazy yet).

not really intel showed a PIV running at 4.68Ghz in their last developper forum. The thing is that cooling a pc to those temperatures gives it semi superconducting capabilities. PIV will probably go to 3,6 GHZ as said maybe a LIIIItle bit more and then presscot 'll take over using 0,09 tech goal fro prescot is 5Ghz and then...and then... they have to fiind new ways to shake yours and my pockets my friend

<font color=blue>"My 2 case fans are 7v modded, guess what ? cant hear them. "</font color=blue>

[humor]I'm not too sure about how quiet your system is. At our age, we don't hear alot of things.....[/humor]

<font color=blue>"I can hear more noise coming out of his headphones than any fan ever could.. "</font color=blue>

Know what you mean. I wish I couldn't hear the "music" from my sons headphones while in the car, wind noise and all.
