What's the best cooling system?

[kenny724]

Hey, everybody. I was just wondering what is the best cooling system out there for extreme overclocking? Do they have an supercold cooling systems like liquid nitrogen or anything like that? Liquid nitrogen is like -300 or -400 degrees, can't remember. But that'll keep stuff from over heating and frying....I would think.

The best thing that is avalible to the consumer would be a refrigeration unit like this from vaporchill:

But as you can see they don't come cheap. But they do keep the cpu cool, I beleive Tom's once had a test using one of these and had the cpu running at -32.

Liquid Nitorgen is cold but there isn't a system to keep it in constant use with computers. It's also dangerous to use if your not trained in handling it.
