Hello everyone,

First off let me say thank you for all of the great information over the years. I have read the site/forums for many years and have done some exprimenting on my own. I am not a big poster on any topics/boards/lists but I do alot of reading!

I saw some posts (in the late 90s) of researching the idea of using a refridgerator as a case, and ever since then that idea has plagued me. Has anyone tried this?

Basically my idea stems from using the freezer for cooling coolant to very low levels and then using the standard water cooling loop to cool the highest temp components ( CPU and GPU ). At the same time lowering the ambient temp for the entire computing environment.

Does anyone see any problems with this idea?

Has anyone done it? Was it successful? What difficulties did you have or do you forsee?

I am probably going to start this project around May or June and would like to do research between now and then to get all of my points straight. I want to build a large coolant tank so I can add in systems later if it works well.

How do you guys think this would stand on the efficiency scale vs. other methods of cooling ( including Peltier methods )?

Sorry I probably put this in the wrong place... I realize this is not really phase-change, but I am not sure where else to put this.
