Big gain with Win7 + CCC 9.8 + ghetto dice chiller. I'll post some pics if I can get them out of my phone.

Alright! #5 with only 4.34ghz clock. Man get that thing to 5ghz then make a run at it.

I was working on 4.5 but was running out of dice. I could see my temps creeping up.

Frozen_Goat, got any frosty pics of the setup ?

[69_Goat]

Here's a couple pics of my chiller. Outer pail has 1/2" dry ice pellets and 100% Ethanol (gas line antifreeze from a local hardware store). Inner pail contains ethylene glycol, (regular auto antifreeze). I don't have a temp probe, so i'm guessing the antifreeze was somewhere around -50C for it to gel like it was. I had no insulation, so I flipped my comp on its side so condensation would drip away from the components. Risky? Probably!

High risk and CLASSIC!

Jinkies!

Old school subzero Insulation Shminsulation lol

dont think turning it upside down is going to help the socket much, might also effect the thermals, (probably not so much).

Get a lid on those buckets buddy

dude that is seriously SICK

That set-up got me almost to 4.6 GHz, but me in my infinite wisdom, didn't get a CPU-Z validation. doh!!
I did have a cover on the buckets, but with them on, it wouldn't have been a very good picture.
As far as condensation in the socket, I don't think the cpu got cold enough. The lowest temp Real Temp showed was -8C at boot and dropped to around -1 to -2. I was more worried about drops on the vid cards.
I also had it propped on those catalogs with it nosed up to the open window. It was around 2 AM and the temp outside dropped to 7C.
