    Guys I saw the coolest thing

    Its really cool in two ways... its cool in that its awesome and its cool in that it freezes a CPU. I saw a case mod with a circular window with a diameter of about 2 inches. They took a window aircondition and used like molded plastic and sent it through the hole in the case sort of around and through the cpu's heatsing and out the back. The temp was in the high teens like 17! I want to take it away and use it for myself

    17c ... 17f would be insane. Its at 17c and thats only on setting 5 of ten. I think he can get it down to 10 or 11. These are at stock speeds of course.

    You can get condensation on your internal parts blowing cold air from an AC into your PC.

    If your gonna run a compressor, may as well just run a direct die setup giving better energy efficency as well as colder temps.

    Sweet there she is

    I don't think condensation would be that big of a problem if you didn't have the AC set to the coldest temps.
