I read an article about a japanese guy who o/ced his P4 2.2Ghz to 4Ghz, using liquid nitrogen for cooling.
There was also another guy who managed 3.8 Ghz and used a styrofoam cup filled with liquid nitrogen placed on his cpu for cooling (there was frost all around the cpu on the mobo in the pic, so I'm guessing he used some sort of insulant on the motherboard to protect it from short-circuiting)
I've been really keen on using liquid nitrogen for cooling ever since. Does anyone know where to get it and which materials are resilient to it's freezing effects so that it can be contained?
