    Bleson reacted to BuckGup in Minty Fresh EXTREME GHETTO WATERCOOLING!   
    UPDATE!
    Well this is the conclusion to my project. Is it a good idea to ghetto water cool a PC? YES! If you made a waterblock out of something water tight I could totally see it viable. I don't see it happening on a titan X and i7 5960X but for an old home sever it is a nice little project. We entered the BIOS and the idle temps went from 90C to 59C. I call that a major win considering toothpastes thermal properties. I was going to post a video of use overclocking it and the temps but well lets just say hot glue isn't the best thing to seal things with. After we got the temps we went to the voltage and clock speed but by the time we went to it in the BIOS water had gotten under the pins of the CPU and well you can sorta guess what happened. I also dropped it on a kids toe and think I broke his toe so I might need to give him something. In conclusion it was a fun little project that could of worked it we would have used something like epoxy or waterproof glue. This isn't the end of these kinds of threads from me as we are trying to run GTA V on a cluster of 16 computers. Man it is going to be hard but seeing tek syndicate show a video on how to make GTA V run on linux I have faith. I will post a real build log of when I do a 4K overhaul on my PC this June.
