Microcircuit cooling
    #5527861 - 04/18/06 12:33 AM (17 years, 9 months ago)

Why don't R&D scientists ever cool computers with refrigeration technology? If they want to make computers more powerful per volume by making them smaller (making them smaller increases electrical resistance and creates heat?) then is the only issue to consider the higher added power cost of running the cooling unit?

alot of people, mostly the overclockers, used alot of different ways to cool the circuitry to gain mhz and reduce signal loss.

peltiers
water coolers
and even liquid nitrogen.

the only thing u gotta worry about is condensation but there are ways to coat the circuit with a special waterproof film.

There are more factors involved in upping clock speed then simply cooling. Many many more factors.

There are both computer cases with built in cooling systems and racks that have a built in air conditioner. I have seen both.

Have been for years. It's expensive though.
