Now i want one of those!!! :eek: , although the liquid cooling kit my cost a bit ;) .
using the same logic as that article that means my processor should be able to run about 40% quicker at -268.5C. does newegg sell liquid hydrogen? :p

We've already been pondering it (Bistro posted it) but when i went to post the link i realised it was in the specialists lounge.(The hidden one).:rolleyes:

Dual chip board would give you 1Terahertz.:eek: with liquid notrogen no doubt.
