Add a caveat about location/venue of said experimental overclock.

Sounds interesting to say the least. Do you have photos of these ice boxes? You'll want to run a motherboard/cpu combo that doesn't have a cold bug and cold boot bug problem. The memory on the GPU tends to hate extreme cold. But, I'm not sure just how well the nitrogen/air heatsink transfer rate will be when running the system. Are these systems pressurized or just mostly contained with a vapor escape?

An experiment would be to start the process at ambient and log at which cold point the system bugs out at.
