Due to all of the viewers of our previous Overclocking Day in which we attempted a world record, we will be hosting an Overclocking Weekend! Taking place on Saturday, December 18th and Sunday, December 19th, TBCS Journalist Trace Hagan will be spending his whole weekend LIVE on video overclocking an Intel Core i5-655k and a Core i7-980x!
Read all of the details, after the jump...

At home depot picking up some supplies.
Barbs, insulation, ice chest. Hmm what could I be cooking up for this weekend? Correct guess wins a prize
-
Re: TBCS Presents a 2 Day Live Overclocking Event!
A REALLY big slush box. :)

Re: TBCS Presents a 2 Day Live Overclocking Event!
So let's add some details to this. I'll be collecting base values for the systems in SuperPiMod, Cinebench, and Vantage. Then I will overclock as high as possible for each benchmark and compare the increase. This is the basic plan!

Re: TBCS Presents a 2 Day Live Overclocking Event!
Close, but still no. It works on a similar principle to a slushbox

Dry ice filled cooler with your raddy in it?
-
Re: TBCS Presents a 2 Day Live Overclocking Event!
Not LN2 pot.
msmrx, that is what a slushbox is
-
Re: TBCS Presents a 2 Day Live Overclocking Event!
you're going to be running super chilled water into the tank, then it will be forced through the radiator taking heat with it and out the other side?
-
Re: TBCS Presents a 2 Day Live Overclocking Event!
Getting even closer, but still no.
-
Re: TBCS Presents a 2 Day Live Overclocking Event!
Are you going to push air through the ln2 storage, into the ice chest, through the rad and back to the start?
-
Re: TBCS Presents a 2 Day Live Overclocking Event!
LN2 slushbox? :P
..Hmm, or are those hoses coming in and out of the box not attached to the radiator? :think:
-
Re: TBCS Presents a 2 Day Live Overclocking Event!
youre gonna pour gasoline into the cooler, set it on fire, and see just HOW hot the processor can get before it explodes? :D
-
Re: TBCS Presents a 2 Day Live Overclocking Event!
I love the crazy ideas--however, none of them are correct.
2nd hint (and probably the last): THINK: Cheap-mans home made phase changer

Re: TBCS Presents a 2 Day Live Overclocking Event!
Radiator in a cooler ice packed with the loop running ammonia under a partial vacuum?

Re: TBCS Presents a 2 Day Live Overclocking Event!
i got it. your going to get a tank of liquid nitrogen,strap it to your back and stand over the computer manically laughing while freeze spraying everything. then your going to have a friend do some crazy over clocks. yes?
-
Re: TBCS Presents a 2 Day Live Overclocking Event!
no no you're going to run LN2 through the cooling system and put more in the tank as a super cooler :D

Re: TBCS Presents a 2 Day Live Overclocking Event!
I see what you did there. :D
-
Re: TBCS Presents a 2 Day Live Overclocking Event!
you canibalized a fridge and are going to run the coolant through a radiator that has the refrigerated air running through it?
-
Re: TBCS Presents a 2 Day Live Overclocking Event!
It's a AC window unit, if I'm not mistaken. ;)

Re: TBCS Presents a 2 Day Live Overclocking Event!
Down to below 40*F which is what I achieved with DICE last time.

Re: TBCS Presents a 2 Day Live Overclocking Event!
Trace is attempting something that's basically impossible with off the shelf water cooling. In fact, it's impossible with any current fluid.
This will prove to be interesting.

Re: TBCS Presents a 2 Day Live Overclocking Event!
Ah, is he using your nano-particle stuff, Kayin?
-
Re: TBCS Presents a 2 Day Live Overclocking Event!
Nope. Not the nano-stuff, it'll only do about -30.
Just have to wait and see.
-
Re: TBCS Presents a 2 Day Live Overclocking Event!
Well--I seem to be having some issues. Please hold while we fix the technical difficulties.
I may in fact be going to a slushbox.
