Eeesh that GPU block is ugly. And a waste too. Why would you want your RAM that cold? RAM isn't ment to run at sub ambient temps. It's almost like chilling your MOSFETs, they will probably function worse.

OK, chilling your MOSFETs might make them worse? The only reason I can think that would make sense is if the lowered resistance (Rdson) increased noise because the R in an RC noise filter is now less. But, the DC-DC converters usually just use LC filtering, not RC filtering. So, am confused.
