It's nothing elaborate. Old water cooler hotwired to full on, thermostat bypassed, with a small pump outputting to a waterblock. Tank is filled with a D-water/dexcool mix. I can get down to roughly -20c, but the recovery time blows. It's good for short blasts only. 32m on a AMD X4 with good voltage to it is a tough go. I'll start out below 0 and by the time it finishes I'm around 25c. Still better than ambient though.

Stuff less demanding like Socket A, PIII's, 939, 754, etc. is no big deal most of the time.
It will be replaced soon...........hopefully with Rick's old cascade unit.

Quick old pic.
