with a case temp of 4 degrees celius, who the hell needs watercooling

my avarage cse temp is about 12 degrees as my computer stands right by a badly isolated door to a room that isnt heated...

i may add that i live in the northern parts of sweden... -22c as we speak... and NO we dont have polarbears walking around in the streets

by the way my watercooling system is on the way... gonna run some tests with an outside bong cooler

i hope ill remember to put some antifreeze into the water....

what do you think my temps will be ?

and by the way the lovely lady in the picture is my BELOVED daughter Ebba.

Not sure how fast glycol will evaporate at that temp, but since its pretty toxic, I think this would be a Bad Idea™

Still, thats pretty cool. I live in Tucson and am thrilled thats its finally into the low 50sF during the morning. I think we even broke freezing a week or so ago.

Who needs watercooling? You do. If it's -20c or whatever outside, and you ran hoses out the window to a radiator outside, you'd have -20c water, and a damned cold CPU, all while your room is a cozy 80f (not sure what that is in C, 25c maybe?).. I've always wanted to live in Siberia so I could do some budget supercooling..

I wish I could get temps like that inside of our freezer! X-Mas day it was 70 here. I am in South-Central Texas. I think you are going to need to put lots of pictures of your bong cooler that is burried in snow. You might want to watch your daughter around the antifreeze though. Glycol will prob work better but I do not know what the heat transfer properties of it are.
