well it is suppose to be -6 next monday. so i was thinking of doing the same thing i did a few years back and put my tower right beside the window, insulate it and then open it as nessisary. the window is just the right and im in the basement,theres a mesh screen for protection. now before i do this i have a few questions, well more like one. will my pc explode(any hardware failure due to cold temp)

moisture is your only real concern since the screen will block debris.

Calgary 2, my dad just told me it was going to be -6 next Monday. seems plausible as it is calgary. none the less its going to get down to the negatives sooner or later.

dose moisture condensate on the coldest thing it can find?

edit: ya bye bye 20+ weather. http://www.theweathernetwork.com/fourteenday/caab0049 looks like it going to be under 16 next week and will steadly drop till a -30 Chinook shows up.

I say get wet and put the rad. out side in the winter, you will need to run antifreeze

At temps. that low will there even be any moisture to condensate ?

I was thinking, submerge this system in mineral oil and keep doing what he's doing, $100 vs. $400

ya getting waterblocks for my system would cost to much, and the mineral oil thing will be annoying/messy and no room to put it.

i remember doing it with my old system and i got -20c temps but i had an athlon x2 and 9600, and a ****ty mobo. now with this system maybe i can get my phenom to hit 3.6+ and my 4850x2 to hit 800/1150.
