Well, who wants to spend $50,000?

Some dudes cooled a Pentium 4 processor to -196 C or something dumb like that, then OCed it to 5.25 GHz...Fast...

That is damn fast...

Man now thats wicked!!

I want one :P

so do I. :P

Liquid Nitrogen is by far the coolest thing ever! (coolest meaning cool and cold :D)

holy stuffed fishing sticks:O!da' kool:]!
....now what kind of shop sells liquid nitrogen:wacko:?
EDIt:ok.....$50,000?.....my excitement starts cooling off:P

Wow... must be unstable as hell though. I wonder what would happen if you brought the tempature down to absolute zero(-273.73 C)...
They better defrost that crap safefully, or the whole mobo will be soaked. :P

ok, 1, i dont know how much it would cost. 2, at that speed, it was completely stable, there were no problems at all, and 3, if they were really into it, they would have cooled it with liquid helium...good shit...

Yeah liquid helium will take the temperature down to somewhere around 2K to 25K. Which is WAY cooler than Liquid Nitrogen can get to. But then again, this is pretty kewl too :D

i would kill to be able to do that where can i purchase tanks of liquid nitrogen anyway? lol

Man, at that speed, Killer Instinct and a lot of MAME CHD games would run at full speed for a change. Where do I sign up?

I am not impressed.

You local welding shop should have it. I could by 10L for $50USD. But the container to hold it costs around $600USD.

If you brought the temperature down to absolute zero, atoms would cease to move, so I doubt that would make much progress. ^_^
Ahh computers, for some people it's their indoor rice burner.

5 GHZ:eek2: wow "pretty amazing (: "

thats just so cool its kewl!

But I wouldnt buy it even if I was rich $50,000 would make a much more powerfull clustered solution.
