We need to make a new pot with more mass asap as our current one had a hard time handling the phenom and was guzzling ln2 at an insane rate :(
All in all it was awesome fun and considering it was our maiden ln2 run i was pretty satisfied with the results :)

Cheers !

Potful as in our CPU pot or the Cryocan are you talking about ?

If you are talking about the CPU pot then with Phenom II running at 1.8V Vcore it was literally guzzling LN2 :D

I need to make a new pot for myself,the current one is good for DICE, not LN2

I think that i'm looking at the first Indian Liquid Nitrogen overclocking.. hats off to you man.. that's amazing.. btw.. how much did that whole LN2 setup cost?

Deposit for LN2 Cryocan = 40k
Cost of LN2 = 40/- per litre
LN2 consumed = ~ 30-35 Lts.
Copper Pot = custom made according to my requirements, locally.

amazing work !! Those pics really looks great :p

Just a question - Is that speed is stable enough to pass several hours of prime95, orthos & OCCT test ?

Can you bench crysis with 1024*768 @ low details so that we can compare it with core i7 extreme 975's performance :twisted:

BTW, how far we can take phenom II X4 955BE with good water cooling ?

With water maybe you can go upto 4.5 or so but anything above that is a bit hard. These Phenom II chips need cold, they love it. Its insane to see how they scale under cold,just love it :twisted:

^^ Thanks buddy ! So it's like this :

Godd air cooling will take it to 3.8-4Ghz.

Good water cooling will take it to 4-4.5Ghz.

& eXtreme LN2 cooling will take it to 6050 MHz ! Great ! :twisted: :p

Darky, impressive man.

Minus LN2, I had some fun with a Core i7 975E. Fun chip, especially since it got to 4 GHz+ on air. Not allowed to post wprime benchies though (here)

^to the addict, he's benchmarking a CPU, not the graphics subsystem, all those benchmarks tax only the CPU. The GPU doesn't matter...
