Cooking with PC Parts

luk9400

I think when 290x's get really cheap I'm gunna buy one so when I'm poor I can cook ramen on it.

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)

I bought a fluid resistant amd card to be able to do this, since all my r9 280 does is run at 80 degrees C while I'm playing games at 50% usage

LOL it's funny, but it's still a relevant GPU the GTX 480... it runs games surprisingly well :D

 

5870 on the other hand can barely run any modern DX11 titles :P

So I've heard tons of people talking about how there CPU or GPU heats up so much that they can cook an egg or toast toast on it. Is this just an exaggeration or is it accully possible?

Ps:Linus you should make a video on this

If you could design a heat-sink that is spreads the heat out and into something more like a pot or a pan, absolutely possible!

It is definitely possible but a stove top is much more effective. You can also cook food in the dishwasher or in your car, If you are interested in weird ways to cook food.

Isn't this not possible anymore because of thermal throttling?

I think it would be a cool idea to make a metal pan or plate and place it on top of an overclocked AMD FX-9590 on an open test bench, crack some eggs on that sucker and see what happens.

Easily. CPU is 100W or so, more if you take FX processor, the problem is keeping it alive at high enough temperature for long enough time, because they die pretty fast at temps required to cook food.

 

It is definitely possible but a stove top is much more effective. You can also cook food in the dishwasher or in your car, If you are interested in weird ways to cook food.

It's not more effective, just more powerful. CPU is 50-200W, stove top upwards of 1000W http://www.amazon.com/IMUSA-GAU-80305-Electric-Single-Burner/dp/B005T0SN0K/ref=sr_1_1?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1448307819&sr=1-1&keywords=stove

actually it wouldn't be possible without thermal throttling, if it didn't throttle it would die way too fast without a heatsink.

Sure, but I'd feel sorry for the CPU... poor thing.

Unless it's a Pentium D. Then I'd roast that mothafucka.

Roast them all! I have something like 10 Pentium D 820s.

I'm so happy for the fact that there are some people who can afford the luxury of doing these sort of things, testing if electronic products can be blended, survive acid or molten metal baths, etc.  While there are millions of other people who are living well below the poverty line, having to risk their lives in search of freedom from fear and tyranny, trying to scrounge up enough each day just to put a simple meal on the dinner table.

@ALwin tell 'em to come here, we'll feed them fried chicken santa burgers and pretzels roasted on our Pentium Ds and 4s!

 

Alright, I will pass that along to all the Syrian refugees.

In a dishwasher?

Wouldn't it make your food soggy?
