Sistema Report post Posted July 23, 2006 Hiya, Look what I stumbled upon. A 5.25 GHz CPU with Liquid Nitrogen cooling??! Some of you may have seen better (I am soo gonna get pwnd on this thread). But gosh... any idea how much the liquid nitrogen would cost? I've read that it wasn't stable at that speed (duh! ), but they said it worked perfectly fine at 4700 MHz. Oh yeah, here are the specs of the system: Intel Pentium 4. Asus P4C800-E MSI GeForce FX5950 Ultra Corsair DDR550 Pro Series Promise SATA-150 RAID 0 Asetek Vapochill Heatsink temp: -196 C Chipset temp: -39 C FSB Clock: 309 MHz System Bus: 1237 MHz Memory Clock: 206 MHz CPU Core Voltage: 1.88V Here's the video so you can see for yourself. The site wanted registration to view the video, so I googled it and found a link: Teh Video. Although it's DivX. And damn nice music as well!! Anyways, read more about it here. Cheers! - Sistema.

Peach Report post Posted August 12, 2006 if they can reach a super super cold tempreture they could have supraconductors so a faster speed even !! but 5gHz super fast already but i'm wondering if 2*3ghz proc would still be faster ¯_¯ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LabRat Report post Posted August 12, 2006 I suppose I could google for this but I won't, it is theoretical.. What sort of clock speeds could be done if the PC was in the vacuum of space? Space is at as near as you can get to absolute zero so as to be not worth working out the difference, so you wouldn't even need a heatsink.. The only problems I could foresee would be the extension lead from your bedroom would need to be like 500 miles long, and getting 15-core cable gold plated cable for the monitor would cost more than your house, and probably more than the Queen's too I envisage more than one spouse has considered blasting their partner's PC into orbit, so some money could be saved there Anyway I digress. Paint the thing with nice shiny chrome to reflect the sun's rays. Oh and you'd need a rather steady hand to poke the reset button with a stick, and maybe an observatory to actually see the reset button.

ttlanhil Report post Posted August 12, 2006 space is cold, true... but it's also a wonderful insulator (vacuum thermos, anyone?) since there's no matter to conduct thermal energy (though it can still radiate heat) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LabRat Report post Posted August 24, 2006 Neither - it is a scientifically proven* fact that Windows goes into terminal meltdown after 37 minutes, and due to the preemptive multitasking features it takes another minute for the POS OS to realise that it has broken irreparably, thus causing a CPU reset. *My mate's mother's dog's cousin (which may or may not have sent a load of obscene PMs and spammed beam) said that he knew this cat that ate this pigeon, and the pigeon told the cat in its final death throes about the time he was flying past this computer superstore at 9:38 AM and saw all the PCs crash at once.

Cycloonx Report post Posted September 20, 2006 5Ghz is a waste of money, no programs you use frequently need 5ghz Even games need max 2ghz or something a like, better go for a nice gfx card or some memory Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
