guys i already said im not getting water any more im just gonna stick with an ultra 120 extreme. How much is good phase cooling anyway? I don't think ncix even has that anyway.
oh dang... I hate forums that have those b/s/t implementations... doesn't really help validity too much since people can always spam... but I guess it does help, anyways...
I heard phase cooling units make a horse load of noise, is that true? (after this, i'll leave the thread lol)
if i wanted something to cool my cpu, chipset, and gpu im looking at 400+ (which im only spending 150). You have to change the water ever 3-4 months. The risk of installing it and damaging components. but the #1 reason is im not gona do Serious ocing so its not really worth it even if i only spent 150.
Well, the changing pahse can produce temperatures reaching around −30 degrees Celsius. The gas flows down to the compressor and the cycle begins over again.i This way, the processor can be cooled to temperatures ranging from −15 to −100!! degrees Celsius, depending on the load, type and speed of the processor and the refrigeration system.
and please note that this type of system suffers from a number of issues but mainly one must be concerned with dewpoint and proper insulation of all sub-ambient surfaces must be done otherwise the pipes will sweat dripping water on sensitive electronics. Which isn't good! lol
Their are many different ways of cooling your computer. Some i can think of.
Passive heat sink cooling
Active heat sink cooling
Peltier cooling or thermoelectric cooling
Water cooling
Heat pipe
Phase-change cooling (the one we are talking about)
liquid nitrogen
Soft cooling
