How about this cooling idea to maximize pc speed?

[calmius]

What if, you take your pc case and put it whole into the refrigirator?
You would just have to create an opening for the wires to go outside and the biggest difficulty would be to get long keyboard and mouse cords to reach your desk. Also need longer monitor cord.
This would not be expensive in terms of paying for electricity and it's guaranteed to be very cold AND dust free!
You might say "well how do I put the cd in and out" for that you have to open the fridge door and operate it.

Another good thing: All noise would stay inside the fridge.

What about condensation?

Get a Koolance case.

yeah yeah I know about the water cooling, and it's not like I am saying I would put my pc into a fridge, but I am wondering what if, and would it work if it was done?

Condensation? Yup, I dind't thinkn about that.

I wouldn't want to go there either because of condensation.

The Koolance isn't a water cooled system...it uses refrigerant coolant with a compressor and condensor...just like a refrigerator.

Unless you live in a really humid place and open the door frequently condensation shouldn't be a problem. I can't imagine actually doing it. But I guess you could make it work.

ATTENTION!!!
I found out that condensation is NOT a problem!

COndensation only appears on products that already have moisture in them. PC doesn't have any water there to begin with. Humidity from the air won't condense on the pc case or inside because it's warmer than the air.

In addition , if you're concerned about the air humidity you could put a water absorbing substance in the fridge that will absorb humidity from the air and make it dry.

But there is another problem.
The pc is constantly producing heat, unlike food. Maybe there is not gonna be enough cooling or air to cool the pc fully. Now that sucks. I was hoping that instead of buying water cooling for $200+ , I could buy mini fridge for $100

Nope you are wrong. The case you are referring to is Kryotech. Koolance is watercooled

My mistake...got them confused. I knew someone out there made a refrigerant based cooling system for overclockers.
