I really appreciate all your thought. That is a very comprehensive list and gives my mind a new direction to go in. I can better appreciate articles I see about these sorts of things.

i think maybe i have misplaced it. The purpose of the the phase 1 radiator is to shed a degree of heat coming out of the pc, mitigating what exposure phase 2 has to combat. I thought it would gain me maybe some time/capacity in lower temperatures. My end goal would be 50deg. F. for maybe 4-6 hours. Sub 0 solution I believe is now covered in the next reply.

This is a superior long term solution and again requires closer to hvac skills. Components would be about 4x price. I don't think I have seen a dry gas case. My primary goals were to keep p.c at below room temp. 50 deg. F. Would have been my goal. Your goal is one in which I consider to be far more elegant and long term automated. There's usually controllers involved in your level. Spot me a list of components so that I can truly appreciate the thought.

I have not got that far ,it sounds like you have the closest thing to what I want to do. I haven't built it yet, I was not sure it would have the proper capacity for the effort to make it worthwhile. How long does the frozen loop stay below Room temperature versus how much colder does it get the computer side?

A frozen tank in primary loop would generate sweat. You would have to take extensive measures to insulate. If you are capable of rigging something like what is shown together that is a long term though technically more demanding solution. I think my method is probably cheaper and has potentially less fatal outcomes possible. Use priming ball to pump out cold side each night and freeze again. Reprime each use and kick in before top temperature is reached for more than doubling heat capacity over probably 4-6 hours. Also noted this is probably not a truly valid extreme overclock solution.

Not sure if this is already done or not. Two liquid cooling systems tied together. The first ties in to the pc. Pc output into radiator 1. Radiator 1 line out, goes to brazed plate heat exchanger hot side in. Hot side out goes to pc input. Radiator 2 output combines with a freezing(32deg far.) antifreeze tank for mixing. This combined flow goes to b.p.x cold input. B.P.X cold output goes to radiator 2 input. Radiator 2 has freeze packs between fans and radiator(the solid curved ones perhaps). Radiator 2 output brakes into 2 lines(line 1 completes loop, line 2 goes to top of a fill tank containing more freeze packs).
