Re: New/Improved Longest Thread - KarthXLR - 04-07-2012

I got a letter from my Grandmother today. Her messages are getting shorter. I'm worried about the both of them.



It's been a long time since I've seen them in person.


Re: New/Improved Longest Thread - kaese - 04-07-2012

Just got back from Minneapolis. Apparently there was a sci-fi convention at the hotel I was staying at.


Re: New/Improved Longest Thread - Kirby - 04-07-2012

An idea just occurred to me, now I only wish I had the funds to assemble it.

Water cooling system for PC >> Fish tank chiller in system after radiator.



Not sure about heat dissipation though. My X4 980 is a 125W CPU,If I were to get a chiller rated for 130-150 watts.. I wonder if I could get away with a radiator-less system?

Algae and scale will clog up your pcs water block. Any anti-algae and anti-mineral stuff will kill your fish.

It would work if he was just using the fishtank as a heatsink though, with a closed system going to the computer <-> a condenser coil in the fishtank


Re: New/Improved Longest Thread - Dr. Zaius - 04-08-2012

use mineral oil instead of water...

use beer and have a keg instead of a fishtank

beer would get warm though; you would have go English style.

There's no fish tank or fish involved in this plan.....


Just a chiller.

[/quote]Ah, I get it. Instead of sinking your heat into a fishtank, you want to use a fish tank cooling system to cool your computer. You know a fish tank chiller is essentially just forced-air radiator, right? So you'd be introducing a point of failure without really getting rid of your radiator.

Correct. I wasn't aware of the construction of them though, although after investigation it seems you're right. =/  

I did find a number of smaller, thermoelectric chillers that are designed to be installed in a sump or similar reservoir through a plug hole but the most powerful of them I could find was 50 watts of dissipation. I'd need at least 3 of them, and at $100 a pop, building a vastly superior traditional water cooling system for less overall cost would be easier.


Maybe if I get a mini-fridge and put a large multi-gallon reservoir and radiator in the fridge... lol  Sad



On another note, what do you do when you're trying to download a 3.3GB .iso image but the server on the other end is limiting your download to only 250KB/s?

[Image: getdgraph3.png]

You download it on a really fast server then download it from there when it's done. Apparently the server the .iso was on is only on a 100Mbit port, too.


God I wish I could download 3.3GB in under 4 minutes...

Did the voice start out kind of funny at first but then slowly became more annoying over time?
