Porsches have been air cooled for a LONG time... thats why they have those big vents in front of the rear wheels. I havent ever heard of a watercooled porsche before... >s…
Not that this matters,but you have probably seen old Porsche Turbos where those air vents near the rear wheels were used to feed the massive twin turbochrgers. But i think late 80'…
Hey, about the Porsches--
They were ALL air-cooled up until the new 911 (or 996, whatever you wish to call it), when Porsche started to use water-cooling (more efficient). Every c…
AHH!!! yes i am an idiot, i knew that, all there old cars are air cooled while their new ones are all water cooled. But who cares Cash, just let me tap into your vast knowledge of …
Yep and Lamborgini is going to be making one around 2004 or so (with the V-12 Diablo engine) and i have to say, what is the point? Use money to buy SUV and buY a sports car instead…
sorry. Um. You cant do it personally, you need to have some resistors moved. Here:http://home.earthlink.net/~nickndan/imac/imacmod1.html

Hello people!
Feathers mentioned that we were stuck with the 66 Mhz bus on rev. A-D iMac, thus the "moving the bottleneck around".
Can't we do anything about that? I mean, we've…
Yeah, if I could overclock my bus speed, I would be in a lot better shape. I don't want to buy an upgrade card and then have it sitting comparatively idle while my stupid 66 MHz b…
I have a PB1400cs with a broken passive screen. I was wondering if it was possible to install an active screen from a PB1400c. Anyone cares to share their experience doing this? Ar…
That is insane. Wow. I dont get it though.. he shells out a grand for some chemicals, but wont spend 50 bucks on a transmission cooler (complete with cooling fins like a radiato…
The bad part is, it does not work! Apparantely the Fluironite cannot withstand super low temperatures that the liquid nitrogen was bringing it down to... what a waste of 1000$+
mad people, but from NZ, so what do you expect
They also didn't take into account that most components have a *minimum* operating temperature too. So cooling that lump of celery …
This thing did work, and would have kept working if they just used the test setup: full of ice cubes and about half full of icewater. The liquid nitrogen was very cool visually &am…
"I have wondered sometimes if you could overclock safely by just sticking the CPU case inside a freezer compartment"
That's a good Idea! (not that i'm going to try it on my G4 tho…
Thats a BAD idea. Condensation. thats why. Anyway, you guys all have valid points, but personally I'd go for the alcohol. Why? Well, even if it doesnt work, you can still drin…
hmmm... They got a 366 up to 650 before the cooling quit. A ratio of 1.77 to 1. If that ratio held up for a PowerPC chip, you could get a 500 up to at least 887 MHz.
Also...conde…
I remember that someone had stuck computer internals in a fridge... they managed to OC a 33mhz 486 (?) to ~250mhz.. died like 10 minutes later, but was cool.
Because I bought a FireWire PowerBook, my older notebook, one of them PowerBook G3/333 computers. It's a really, really nice notebook, but now that it's unused, I can start screwin…
