Acetone is used to facilitate the cooling effect better to the entire surface area of the pot.

You can use 45ml of Acetone for an entire days benching.

You can use any 100% pure alcohol.

Then drink it after if you decide on Vodka

Oh and yes you get a bad headache from benching in a closed room. You must bench with open windows for DICE. DICE is actually more dangerous from a death perspective than LN2 of course.

from a death perspective

Benching to the death Thats hard core man lol

That is definitely something to be cautious of... after all Dry Ice is carbon dioxide.

My wife is telling me these days that im turning into a nerd.... But today when I discided to grab a pack of ice and put it on my rad she actually started to doubt me.... Anyway I dont mind because I am on my way to the 800's

Btw I couldn't find any info on what Liquid the H100i holds? Is it plain water or is it some other substance? It's important for me to know for when it's December!

Hi Crimsonomega

If your considering doing some benching in the back yard this winter. I dont think you will have any problems as long as you don't let the PC stand out in the cold not running. As long as the PC is on the temps will be more regulated so I don't see how the coolant in your corsair H100i would freeze. I am sure even if they went cheap on the fluid it's at least 40 to 50 % glycol alcohol.

Some nice scores posted up there guy's. Keep up the great work and White paw with his I5 way to go

[Crimsonomega]

Cheers Meankeys you are absolutely right, I will keep my system running from the moment i put it in my back yard! I wonder what results I will create by the time!

Hay Guy's question for the water cooling grues. would you install your flow meter on the pressure side or return?

Or it's like pressure that is equally transmitted through out the whole system simultaneously.

Currently running RES - Pump- CPU Block - Cool Can - Rads - Res

I Pulled the trigger on some goodies for the bench. I needed to get the rads off the bench and my rig organized.

Most of the time I have the flow meters on the return side of the my loops, but in those few cases when I had them on the pressure side they were showing the absolutely same flow... - so, it does not matter really, assuming that you would place the flow meter on the same diameter tubes on both sides....

"distilled water with propylene glycol"

doesn't give a % or minimum operating temp
