Its phase change cooling at -34c idle and -26c load (see red LED in picture), the phase change I want to get though is good for -70c and that might get me 5 GHZ with my old P4.

Check this out and you will see some people have got to -150 and thats cooooold.

WOW thats freaking insane! If you get yours anywhere near that I bet you will get at least 4.5 ghz eaily out of that 6700! I bet this is hella more expensive than water cooling! I am gonna go look around some sites and see what others have done.

I bet you can keep ice cream cold in there! :icecream:

you have phase and your using an ultra psu???

edit: you might want to switch to a higher grade unit if you plan on running a 24/7 computer.


ultra's are notorious for catching fire, having bad rails and horrible manufacturing.


think of it as an american car compared to a german car.

You need a single rail PSU with at least 28A on the 12 V rail to run a vapo XE, not many of these around now (nearly all are split rail) and the Ultra is one of them.

I just blew up an OCZ powerstream 520W (single rail) and before that a PP&C Turbo, so once these are back from RMA they will take over from the Ultra.
