I haven't phoned them for a price, yet.
The reason I went looking for this in the first place is because the only place I can get dry ice in town isn't open on the weekends and they don't produce it here. They get it shipped in and store it. The stuff I used, so far, seemed kinda low grade or degraded from storage. I picked it up on a Friday afternoon, benched after work, and by 5:00 am, it was all gone.
Needless to say, I had serious withdrawl symptoms the rest of the weekend.

Haha, yah, I know what you mean with having a taste of cold and have it all subliminate on you. I can't complain, the only thing I pay for is the drive.

If you got 30k laying around, they sell LN2 plants as well

I thought it was funny, but that don't mean I don't have it lol. I kinda got over it a bit. But I have a feeling you guys are gonna make me become a overclocking/benching junky again

It wouldnt hurt you're hwbot profile if you submitted a run or two. In fact, wprime 32m and 1024m have a convenient and easy "Submit" button built right into the application. Even the laziest of overclockers can garner 2 or 3 points at stock speeds.

I know ur not a pussy tho and running at stock is out of the question

I try to find two speeds. Any modern CPU (made in the last year) at stock even is fast enough for daily apps. So I look for a high clock thats easy to get to for 24/7 that is stable.
For benching, whatever passes is good enough.

Id just rather it be stable to not worry about any long term damage to the chip, even though Ive never been known to keep a cpu (or just about any part) more then a month or two.
