I thought about something:
Can I cool a CPU using a freezer? Just hear me out:
Using a liquid cooler or a custom pump, drill a hole in the two sides of the freezer. Using copper pipes, one goes inside the one side of the freezer and add a longer flexible copper pipe that goes around inside the freezer and connected to the other pipe at the other end of the freezer, this one goes to the CPU and an other one that goes back to the pump(so there are 4 separate cooper pipes, which are connected in the end), to avoid condensation i would isolate the cpu socket area. The liquid should be alcohol, or others that don't freez. The pipes could be other materials but the one inside of the freezer should be a good thermal conductive one.
Idk, i would like to see this in a youtube video...
It might not work, cuz the heat going through the freezer would damage it. But still, it would be a cool project for fun... I made an idea drawing of it http://imgur.com/XKmOJxM

It's called "phase change cooling" and people have been doing it for decades. Using a regular freeze would probably be a bad idea, you might burn out the compressor as it's not designed for that sort of duty cycle, but plenty of companies sell phase change coolers that bolt right to your motherboard.

One issue you have to deal with is condensation, which risks destroying your components, and typically you get very little extra overclocking potential - modern CPUs are not generally limited by temperature.
