Default Best way to cool your pc?
What if you were able to harness the power of Liquid Hydrogen, put it in a L2N pot or in a closed WC loop (if possible?!?), wouldn't it cool like a motherfather?

Since Hydrogen has a 14.3 J/K/g heat capacity

You can put it in an LN2 pot, it's just that most people don't want to risk a potentially fatal explosion to set a new OC record.

The kind of pressures needed to keep it liquid in a WC loop make sure an idea very impractical and very expensive.

Also, the actual gain would be pretty minor.

Yeah... highly explosive liquid around electrical components is probably a bad idea.

If you can get hydrogen to liquefy you'd be too busy figuring out how to spend the billions of dollars in government grants to worry about pc cooling

i dont think computers would even work on pluto. first off its absolute zero there so that means there is no molecular movment. which in turn if you think about it its where time will stand still. lol.
