well, heres my pc config:
AMD Athlon 1800 XP+
Gigabyte GA 7VKML
256MB PC2100 DDR RAM and the rest...
the stock 1800+ runs at 1.53 Ghz.
ive overclocked it to 2.1 Ghz. i think thats the max to which XP 1800+ can go.
my internal clock runs at abt 186mhz.
i have abt 8 cooling fans in the cabinet and i have fitted an a/c next to the cpu which cools this monster. i'm thinking abt upgrading the cpu to an XP2400.
i wanted to ask 1 question:
can dry ice or solid CO2 be used to cool my cpu or has anyone tried it???
