wow benny.. nice oc man .. prime stable? show us some benchmark scores man .. this should be good.

Wow, all that ice around the processor. Woudln't it soon condense and become water and damage the chip?

Unless you fire it up straight away, nothing will happen to it. I use water and soap to clean the dielectric grease from my processor after every DI run

Geez, I didn't know computer components were 'water friendly' like that . I guess it means if you don't short them they'll be fine?

Yup, as long as there's no electricity flowing through them when they're wet. Once they're completely dried, they should run just fine

Ahh, interesting info. Thanks arj!

Perhaps its time to try playing with some DI and wrap it all around my radiator to cool the water loop . Only thing i'd hate to deal with is condensation after the session is over.

OMG.. you too? this is really great , DI'ing you rad will result in a chilled water cooling sys, thus wheter you like it or not, you must do the insulation for you lines, socket + block + mobo and stuff.. in another word it's better if you do a direct die DI cooling... neway.. cool halfway case mod

Would be a bit of a bugger to make sure it doesn't mess with the other components as the thing cause condensation of water vapor within the vicinity of the radiator. I've always wondered the possibillity of using instead the portable air cond some forumers arre using but instead modify it a bit so that a piping be routed to a shroud housing the radiator. Then cold air can be directly be flowing into the radiator. Just a thought.

play DI= play time= play money...

Actually DI is one of the cheapest forms of cooling, albeit a non-permanant one. My first DI container cost me RM60 and DI is RM3.80 per kg

but u say...8jam = 10kg DI...= rm38

let my mom know i play DI...she wil KilL me..

Considering my water cooling loop will include the CPU and 2 GPU blocks, the risks involved due to condensation is too high. I wonder how low the temps will drop with DI by wrapping the rad with it though. If it doesn't drop too low then I guess there is no need for it. Or if condensation starts to appear, I could shut the system immediately so the water will be harmless

wow!! thats a very cheap price for a DI container, i thought rm60 would be the shipping cost from USA! lol.. are u talkign bout the one from US?

Nope, bulkhy made the RM60 container. The one from chilly1 has bigger numbers attached to it

Hehe arj, what kind of numbers?

i'd really like this thread and wouldn't want it to dissapear.. it contains so much info for those who would like to go extreme without much of a hassle with phase change or pelting.. so lets vote for this thread to get pinned... EXTREME COOLING: Dry Ice

EDIT: thank you mr mod and hope arj will do a "dry ice party: revisited" (your DI container is soo )

Your wish is my command master amok. Btw, I've clean up some messes already. Happy viewing. I hope more and more hardcore ocers like u guys will attempt DI very soon.
