So,

if condensation is the biggest problem in an extreme cooling solution, then why don't I see tons of computers simply WC'ed and stuck inside of refridgerators? I mean like literally INSIDE fridges?
 
For one thing i don't think refridgerators can handle the heat, as it's being put out constantly as opposed to everything else we put in it.
 
also, some parts of computer like the cold less than other.

unfortunately, the parts that produce the most heat are not always the same parts that dislike being chilled, so it really doesn't balance out in the end.
 
I dunno about any of you guys abroad. But in england we have little chiller cabinets prebuilt that use high power peltiers to chill beers and stuff :D

What if i drilled two holes in the front, stuck my rad from my wc system in there. Insulated it and left it on fuill blast. Because there isnt a pump to give way to take too much strain. Would i see a significant improvement in temps. One thing to bare in mind is that these chiller cabinets are dirt cheap

PS sorry for the slight thread hijack
 
a few of them together might be enough.

the ones that are available around here are made with jacks that plug into the cigarette lighter of a car, and therefore aren't what i would call high powered.

you'd be running into the problem of condensation
 
Where would the condensation be forming. The Cooler would be external, with the rad inside. And it only drops the temp inside the cooler to about -5. So by the time the water circuited the cpu block a few times it would be considerably higher.
