I am going to make a mini evaportative cooler I think. I want to see how it does compared to a full size one. Going with the coil and scrubby pads type instead of tall tower with shower head.
Curious to see what projects you guys are thinking about doing next.

hopefully in the future they find a way to cool the cpu with a bong cooler inside the case, but this doesnt look practical

'sub ambient temps' is not synonymous with 'practicality'..even if you have a self contained phase change or tec setup...neither of those is 'practical'. Hell watercooling isnt practical. Neither is overclocking for that matter. =)

its not practical lol but not much we do for computers really is... its all about being top dog and yelling in your face to all your friend....

Hey if you do that coil/pad cooler you should use copper tubing and not aluminum...as for it will cause corrosion in your copper blocks. :P

yeppir besides. much easier to find copper tubing than aluminum (i figure i'll just get a roll of soft copper tubing, 1/2" size from home depot. i'll grab a piece of 3" pvc to use as a form and bend the tubing around it in a coil.
I was just looking at another thread. The guy was adding up a shopping list for a loop to cool a cpu and 2 gpu's. His running total was going to be over 900 last I saw. Crazy to spend that much loot I think. Maybe he will stumble in here.....

yeah but you should have read the whole thread...there was already a warning given for mentioning this. Not that I mind, I puff harder then most but I think the admin want to keep it clean.

Well, at least this name gets more random traffic in here than say naming it "The (unofficial) Evaporative Open Loop Cooler Lovers Club!"

Although.... the name "Unofficial Budget Subambient Club" might be cool...

ROFL that was kinda the idea...get the stoners in here to make them think...the funny part is you can tell who is a stoner by the way they come in here and say things like that...if you were not a stoner you would never notice it that way. Damn stoners!

I just bought a GPU block to add to my bong loop...wish me luck with it!
