Iv been looking for a similar thread but haven't been able to find one. I recently overclocked my AMD Phenom II 940. Would it harm my computer if I just stuck a bowl of ice, or a re-usable ice pack in front of my intake fan?
My main worry would be introducing moisture into the system, but could that be avoided by just covering the ice or ice pack with one extra layer, of say plastic wrap or paper towel?
I would only really use this when playing some of the newer games that seem to run fine until the CPU hits 60-62c, where from what Iv read, my CPU is under clocking itself to lower its own temps and performance drops as a consequence.
