PC in FREEZER short circuit still works !

i wanted to show off to my friend and overclock my cpu so im on cpu-z i5 760 15# top overclocks. in order to do that i put my pc in a fridge, and turn it on. it turns on for few seconds and then shuts off. after taking the components out of the fridge i notice water all over my motherboard and some on my graphic card. by then i was 99% sure that one or more of my components were dead. i dried out my mobo and gpu for about ~30 minutes and it still works!

:lol: Why do people even keep trying this?

 

Just sell your hardware or give it away if you want to abuse it :P

you let it get too cold, you have to get all the moisture out of the fridge and lock  it in there 

(1) high frame rate (2) ultra graphics settings (3) cheap...>> choose only two<<...

 

if it's never been done then i'm probably tryna do it. (((((((Bass so low it HERTZ)))))))

Use a dehumidifier so that condensation doesn't ruin your system.

The best way to benchmark hardware is to do it using reasonable methods. Like i dont care if someone got their cpu upto 8ghz because its impractical anyway due to the cost of liquid nitrogen etc. when someone says they got a 5ghz cpu on air or water then i enjoy reading about it.
