Yo dudes,

I got bored yesterday and I made myself an air cooled cooling system direct from my aircond.. hehe..

The temp's around 38 - 39 celsius from the pervious 60 - 62 celsius...

It's just temp though until I get my new water cooled system.. Thought of getting oil based cooling system but gotta see how it goes..

Oh well, take care..

Unless your home aircond is directly above your pc if not then don't think can use besides, office aircond on all the time so it's okay lah ., hehe..

I guess it does minimises dusts.. yeah, good point, have to watch out for condensation but since it's so far up, don't think it'll be much of a hassle.. hehe..
