My vapo LS (modded) will be arriving in one months time...

be prepared for sub -50 temps...

you guys aren't the only two whose making a come back...

bro post sum result here dude
we all want to see liue

tok only....MIA for 6 months and mau ajak yum cha/DIY session like wan to die only. Bro sponsor zip ties can? And apa betik phase on Brisbane?

aiyoh.. no result lagi ka? is it trying to reach 5GHz by using AMD? but lately, tomshardware already reach 5GHz using this method also.. if im not mistaken.. but i guess, tomshardware story still new.. ur already 2years ago.. hehe.. u rox. sometimes i see malaysian modders more pro than outsiders..

comeon guys....time to build a cascade cooler....temps around -70c easily. depends onwat refrigerants u use...i am using r22 on the 1st stage and r410a on the second....i get -75c in windows. I am trying to find r744a (nitrious oxide) as the boiling point is around -88c.....

Added on July 21, 2007, 2:43 pmhere's a pic of my cascade:



Still changing here and there...trying to get the best temps possible...but i doubt i can achieve much using r410a. Need at least r744a to reach -80C or r1150 to reach -100C

looks gd....
wanna planned to make one but still got no idea yet...lol
extremeocer mind teaching me? hehe

no prob....waddaya need to know?

wats the cost like, to build one?
cheaper than getting a vapochill LS?

First, tell me how much does a Vapo LS or Prommy Mach 2 GT cost. IIRC, its around RM3000?

Vapo Ls & Mach2Gt cost about RM3000 i think..

nice cooling setup Extremeocer.... R744 is good, but you will found wall with dice problems, it sublimes @ -78c, so you wont achieve near to it when loaded. some where near -55c @ 185w would be realistic... anyway, why dont you use R410 on your 1st stage? its much colder than R22...
making cascade isnt that expensieve, the tools/refrigerant that makes it expensive.

it's around USD$700...so estimated almost RM3000. Building a phase change system can be real fun not to mention challenging.

Vapo LS and mach2 GT cools at around -30c on full load. Well, a selfmade one could cool at -40c and cost much cheaper. Now, the problem is that the tools cost quite a lot. Once you have the tools, then building a phase change cooling system will be very cheap. It's only a one time start up money that you hafte invest on.

still pinned?

is there no other people can continue this project?interested

Affordable phase-change on the way?

How about compact affordable phase-change cooling? See here : http://www.tomshardware.com/2008/03/14/the...change_cooling/

got no ppl want to play with it.. summore sure cost a lot to electricity..am i right??

Its like running a small fridge right? correct me if i am wrong

wrong... it doesn't consume that much electricity as its not always on... its much more efficient than TEC coolers.. no people play with it because its risky unless you have a temperature controller which shuts off the compressor as it reaches target temperature and turns on when its above...

>>anyway, why dont you use R410 on your 1st stage? its much colder than R22>>>

you can't use R410 on the 1st comp. very high pressure, you can use R134a and R23 if you like to hit -70, but have to change the comp. oil.

PM me if you need small digital temp. controller.

Uh, I think I will pokai trying out one of this...budget only 200ringgit...but I still favor air or water(liquid) cooling.........Just so cool. This type makes your rig look like a science experiment. xD Much rather stay with water/
