Overclocking PC outside?

[aDoomGuy]

Always looked out of my windows at wintertime and thought.. Since heat is overclockers biggest enemy and outside ambient is like maybe -10°C, what would it be like to OC this bisnatch outside. Probably not so great in snowstorm but if the air is dry and temps are low. Well probably still to humid and electric components generally don't react to well to sub-zero temps but still I'd be looking outside... looking at my PC.... would be nice if this crazy cold temp could be made useful..  

 

Probably not advisable to stick the PC into a pile of snow but.. every winter it always gets me thinking.....

as long as the PC temp is higher than ambient, it'll be fine

no condensation will occur, until you try to bring it into the warm house while it's still cold

 

though some components may not like the cold, namely SSD

 

if u have a spare PC that's junk, why not give it a try

Hmm I gave away my FX machine.. 

 

Also, what about an AIO with antifreeze...? I wish I had stupid amounts of money to throw away at experimenting with this  #Asus #EVGA #Gigabyte #MSI
