Beyond water cooling. (Was Re: Peltier devices for cooling)

[Bjarne Nillson]

Bananas to the beat to you all!

Hmm, do as i do, overheating instead,i have
filled my machine entierly with foam!!
And i have removed all the fans for the
physical effect known as "electron bosting".
Its simmilare to the overcharging a dragnet car!!

The machine got extreamly hot but are
speedy as hell, 2,3Ghz no problem senior!

An its wery nice as a rom heater too!
