What is the definition of an extreme cooling solution?
 
Vapor Phase Change or Thermoelectric Cooling (TEC) or Chilled Water Cooling or Liquid Nitrogen.

You mean, air cooling can't be extreme? :confused:

it can be extreme in its implemintation, but in this forum Extreme is usually used for how cold you can get the components in the pc.
 
Sub-ambient cooling would be a decent definition. No way you're getting there with normal air or water, no matter how many fans you've got going. And no, adding a bunch of Tornado fans isn't "extreme", just questionable.

That's how I always felt about it. Phase, TEC, and immersion. I've seen alot of these "Extreme Air Cooling" threads recently, though.

Maybe we need a FAQ up in here...
 
The dictionary says...

extreme cooling:
infers either sub-ambient cooling, or an extremely unorthodox method of cooling such as submersion
