PC phase change cooling systems, DIY?

[Niva]

Anyone had a crack at this themselves or tried a pre-made setup?


Its nothing new but im on a winning streak of just giving shit a go and not being horribly disappointed with the results.

-50 would be niiiace

Ive got an old vapochill in my shed somewhere, might be good for parts if you want it.

vapochill cases were the shit back in the day. wish they still made them.

Vapochill really came into their own with the old Prescott chips (presHOT).
Would you see much benefit from modern CPU?
We used to muck around with peltiers and watercooling, which at least localised the condensation challenges, to just isolating the chip itself.

It's fun but horrendously noisy, expensive to run and prone to catastrophic failure - sound familiar?
