oc Dry ice on 4690k

[LeviBW]

No sure if this is a really bad idea but, I want to see what max frequency I can get on my 4690k, I have a Corsair h115i, could I put the RAD in a bucket and then fill the bucket with water and then drop dry ice into the water,

 

Im worried about the coolent freezing, im not sure what the chemical proporties ofthe coolent they use is

I think it would be a better idea to either delid or use liquid nitrogen.

the chip is already delided and I plan to get into dry ice and LN2 OC eventually, this is just sort of a segway into that

i see, i wouldnt do your idea probably not worth it, get a custom loop going if you want lower temps

Its not for 24/7 use, obv an aio in a bucket is not practicall for 24/7. I want to do it to try to get HW points

Why the fuck would you do this lol... Water dissipation with a rad is awful on it own, Bitwit (Awesomesauce at the time) did a video on having a rad in an ice bath, and it quickly showed that it wasnt worth it. The rad simply was not designed to do this, so its a terrible idea.

They probably use some ethylene glycol based coolant in the AIO.  Condensation is always *the* problem when running subambient water.
