DICE cooling

[CAPSLOCKSTUCK]

Lol. We all did that. The slang term for it was 'Locker Room'. Used to be able to buy it blackmarket for about 10 bucks a vile.

and it is highly combustible.

heres what wiki says

Diethyl ether or simply ether, is an organic compound in the ether class with the formula (C
2H
5)
2O. It is a colorless, highly volatile flammable liquid. It is commonly used as a solvent in laboratories and as a starting fluid for some engines. It was formerly used as a general anesthetic, until non-flammable drugs were developed, such as halothane. It has been used as a recreational drug to cause intoxication.

Exactly. It is highly explosive. A stray spark or static charge will set it off.

argh,

My poor wee country, bloody Scotland! is the only place you can't get mini-bulk supply of LN2 :-(

Can you drive with a dewar full of LN2? or are there special restrictions/safety requirements for its transportation?

I could maybe make the trip down to the North of England myself...!

2/3 hrs each way. Back for dinner time ;-)

 

[FireFox]

bloody Scotland

It's a nice place, i lived there for 6 months

 

[CAPSLOCKSTUCK]

Taking a trip to England really should be a last resort.

 

[Nicholas Peyton]

Taking a trip to England really should be a last resort.

I know, I'm still trying.

I'm emailing companies who I've been put in touch with.

I've also posted at overclock.net asking if anyone knows any Scottish over-clockers I believe we're very few in Scotland.

To give you an idea of that.. Scotland only has a population of 5 million. The entire U.K is 65 million.

But look how big we are compared to England.

That's why its so hard to get LN2 here.

Never even got fibre broadband here until a year ago, lol.

@Knoxx29 where in Scotland did you stay?

Kirkcaldy

Kirkcaldy

Really, were you there during the market. 'Kirkcaldy Links Market'?

I'm there every year

How far do the FX 8350's go on DICE?

It takes me 1.6v+ for 5.3 with a -5c water temp.

And portable meth labs

Seriously though, just stick to the acetone.

A good combo DI/LN2 pot was K|NGP|N's Dragon Evo, or anything with a chunky base, steps, and a center pole. It becomes problematic once you need fine temperature control, but I used one for like a year before moving to an F1.

As far as driving around with LN2 in your car, you'll be fine. Just buckle it in so you don't get burns if you have to slam on the brakes/get in an accident

Nope,

I was young and my life was Disco/Pubs and women

 

[basco]

go to hwbot put fx-8350 in search and then you can select which cooling method:

We have similar here in Australia

 

[CAPSLOCKSTUCK]

I killed a " Grey Fergie." with a can of that. If you value an engine you never squirt that shit in.

 

[Mr.Scott]

Indeed. It's one of the worst things you can do to a diesel motor.

 

[jaggerwild]

you may beed to submit a few scores or postings in the forum before they let you into the market place

You just have to be active on HWBOT for at least 90 days.

It's on its way now from Taiwan.

Brand new

I may of found an LN2 supplier too (got something on the table now at least).

Initially I wanted to start with the GPU (as I'm very active at the 1080 owners club on overclock.net). Done quite a lot for the community over there so it seemed like a natural next step.

However I've listened to the advice from people on here and decided to start with my old FX 8350 (mainly due to absence of the cold-bug on AMD FX CPU line).

Also if I blow the board/chip up in my first ever LN2 experience, it doesn't matter as I'm due a CPU upgrade soon

My mobo doesn't allow me to go over 1.7v I think. So I'll be limited that way:

But I do believe at these extreme temps you won't need as much voltage for the same clocks (as the chip conducts better at lower temps) so I should still be able to have some fun

Can't wait for it to all arrive and to find out if this LN2 supplier thing works out for me

I've got a business development manager from 'BOC Gases' telephoning me tomorrow (they normally only deal with industrial/commercial.

And another smaller, newer company willing to meet me half way. (still a 4hr round trip)

£50 for one months dewar hire (50L)
+
£50 for 50L of LN2.
= £100 (or 125 U.S dollars)
/\ best quote I could get so far (due to my distance & smaller amount)

How long would that last me, anyone? (50L of LN2)?

 

[Mr.Scott]

Depends on what processor and how much you plan on benching. I can go through 20L in a session no problem.

What are you paying for LN2>?

 

[Mr.Scott]

A buck a L.

I saw mentions of condensation, water dripping in the PCIe slots and got scared.. you people are crazy. Like really

Did you say condensation?!?

Did you say condensation?!?

I couldn't do it, lol.. am not gonna tell you i'm poor/i'd never build another rig like this, etc., but it goes beyond that; for me anyway. Just.. couldn't
And i still think yall crazy, lol
