Home depot has a mini sports fridge for 47 dollars. I am going pick up two of them tomorrow. One for a computer case and one for drinks.
 
you can always seal the motherboard up. I am thinking about seting up my motherboard on top along with the rest of the pc and running all my watercooling gear inside the fridge itself. I have a bunch of ideas in my head right now. But for 47 dollars you cant go wrong.
 
Not if you dip your the mobo and everything elese in silicon. But I never have done it so good luck
 
But he could put his resiviour (sp) in the fridge along with this Radiator.. keep em nice and chilly :p
 
sounds good, but unless you want to leave the door open sounds like a decent amount of welding and sealing. you dont want the cold air leaking out .. if so then with your electric bill you might as well go with a vapochill system ^_^. The silicon idea is cool if you know where and how you can get it done, but i would test that out on a junker first so you don't ruin a perfectly good system.

Yeah he could make a seperate compartment for the componets and have fans blowing in there or some thing close to that.
 
What about a fully submerged setup? Can you make a cutom open topped acylic box, then do a submerged PC in the dialetric fluid? Then stick the box in there... I might run by Home Depot tomorow to see if they have any there.
 
i've seen it done, can't find the link right now, but the guy put it in a dialectric lubricant made by 3M and then put it in his fridge, it worked fine, so he moved it to the little freezer in his fridge, still working

he decided to see how far he could take it on an older system(still ran really hot though) put it in the freezer to get it aclamated to the cold, then he dropped it into a styrofoam cooler with a dialectric fluid at -45 degrees F, it ran for about 5 minutes and then stopped, he pulled out the board, and the chip had cracked from expanding and contracting
 
I suddenly had images of a Zalman Resorator sitting inside a mini-fridge.
 
the difference in heat between the inside and outside of the chip warped it until it cracked
