Instead of changing the cup for a new one you should have added more ice Due to a property of materials called latent heat, when a material is changing its phase its temperature will remain constant It means that if you mantain a mixture of water and ice its temperature will always remain at 0°C I'm sure that if you swapped between cups of this solution you could have gotten way better results

@nilsfrahm1323

I was about to suggest same. Also surface area of an ice cube that touches the cup is small, but with water and ice cube, heat will transfer much better between the cube and water and between water and the cup. Maybe even better, modify a heatpipe cooler to enter through a cup, seal it with a glue gun, it would have the heatpipes in the ice cold water and would getter heat transfer in my opinion.

While he would get a way better result, your statement is lacking as there is something called heat conductivity and convection speed. Water that is on contact with the heated surface needs time to move or conduct the heat to other parts of the liquid. So you should also add a stirring system to effectively cool your system.

@niewazneniewazne1890

​@@nilsfrahm1323 Yeah he should have added cold water. The metal part initially only exchanges heat with small contact patch on the ice cube + itself. And largely the ice cube "touches" air which doesn't exchange as much heat with the metal cup.

An idea I once had is a "slush cooler". Basically, it works like a water cooler, except it's hooked up to a slushy machine. The slushified-water fluid is pumped down to the CPU, where it naturally will melt, then the melted slushy fluid is pumped back up to the slushy machine where it is re-cooled.

the compressed air was better than the air duster bc its an aerosol, so the gas decompressing (condensing) also cools down the cpu. You can test this by spraying some on your hand, it'll be cold.

There wasn't nearly enough pressure between the cup and CPU for the thermal paste to be effective. In fact it might have even had some insulating properties (edit: in comparison to metal-on-metal) due to less contact surface.

I used this and it worked thanks for a tuturial!

Ooooohhhh an alcahol evaporative cooling setup would be interesting to see. Get some rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle and spray it on the surface of the CPU! If you’ve got a 3D printer, you could make a collar to go around the CPU so that you don’t get any over spray and it could just mount to the same air cooler holes. (If you wanted me to design the collar for you I’d be happy to do so)

salt changes the freezing point of water. the ice will be the same temperature as the air in the freezer whether or not there is salt in it. what's most likely is that the water would never freeze in the first place

2:21 bsod jumpscare

when applying a new paste, make sure you clean the cpu well, otherwise it won't work as much as it should

The cooling got better as the ice melted because of poor thermal coupling of a loose ice cube, that is improved by the water that bridges the gap as it melts. Filling the pot with water and freezing it would improve that. You could also try to use paraffin (candles), as it has a higher melting point, so maybe it would cool less but last longer.

@HarmonRAB-hp4nk

Ай бұрын

by that do you mean ,,uh.. convection? heat tranfer from one hot objedt to one cold object? ya yer right, the ice has to touch the medium, or its just heating water... and the cube is melting at a rate cooling stops transfering heat, and just boils off.... cooking is a good example... heats low but pan is hot, tons of ice,,, no dif, the pan is being heated faster then the water can cool it :-\.. oop oop what we call, a half ass thermal runaway. :-)

In a 9 minute video, video doesnt start until minute 6

That's amazing. It's as if it wouldn't melt and water wouldn't short-circuit everything.

The measuring cups really should have been sanded to at least a grit of 3000. If that were done, the liquid water would probly be able to sustain a decent temperature without switching cups.

You should freeze mineral oil and see if it works as thermal paste

8:25 first time at the hospital:

I used to do something like this on my old crappy laptop. I would place a round lunchbox cooler under where the cpu was as the thermal paste on the cpu was all dried up.

The fact that mryeester's video is also there. im honored.

Try to put the Ice in the melted water. The ice block does not completely cover the surface of the cup. I'd like to see that rerun with only new ice in the melted water, I think this'll help even more:)

you could retry the ice cube experiment with distilled water ice cubes, those shouldn't be conductive

The problem is surface area all the fins on the traditional coolers increase surface area being cooled. I think the ice improved cooling ability once the bottom of the cup was lined with water more heat transfer. The compressed air would work if you took the fan off the fins of an old cpu cooler.

Of you guys find a way of supplementing a normal air fan but with ice somehow, it should lower the active temperature during stress a little more than just the fan, in addition to reducing the speed at which the ice melts.

Hello! Ice is actually quite more effective. I use it o the bottom of my laptop all the time. My laptop can get quite toasty,and throttles down,but as soon as I rub 1-2 ice cubes all ove te metal bottom it goes back to its maximum potential. I think the biggest mistake you did was to just let the ice sit there. A more effective solution would be to put a small metal plate ontop of the cpu and then rub it as it melts much quicker that way. The biggest problem with ice is that it cant flow tho. Perhaps near freezing temperature water cooling would be the best of conventional and non conventional Collin worlds

I had ran a i5 3470 without a cooler for a week before realizing that it was missing its cooler. Decided to test it with integrated graphics on games like OG ghost recon and rainbow six 3 and it never went above 80 degrees celcius. A testament to "old" Intel.

It was most likely thermal throttling itself.

You could make a take a pvc with a diameter less the the width of the cpu. Glue it on so it can touch the cpu

Try using acetone. It has a boiling point of 56 degrees celsius. By turning the top part of your cpu into a basin, you could literally boil off acetone at 56. That means that the excess heat would be turn into energy to boil off the acetone and prevent the cpu from reaching above 56 celsius.

maximum contact is required between the cup and cpu. There's a reason you screw in an air cooling system tight. As for the air blower, you could've installed the aluminum fins and then blown it with the air blower in replacement of the fan.

im hungry cook egg

I have used ice cubes in a small metal glass to cool my jetson nano while training ANNs

I don't remember the name of some elevtrical component but it cools a metal pad to below zero when connected to electricity. You should try it

great video man ur a legend

i certainly didnt learn a thing but it definitely was entertaining

I had a laptop that started to get hot af so it would overheat (sounded like the fans were not running anymore), So I grabbed a bad of ice and put it under the laptop, surprisingly it worked for around 3 hours

2:16 i can tell this is Tyler1

I've been using ice in a metal bowl with my aio radiators submerged and it works great for gaming

Interesting video but in the end you should've summed up the degrees you got with each cooling method.

Thermal siphoning water cooling system would be cool.

how about a all in one liquid cooler with the radiator, minus fans, placed in a cooler with ice packs that you freeze or have extended hoses that pass through a freezer in one side and out the other.

What if you somehow installed a freezer onto the CPU? Like you took the internal machine that makes a freezer work and placed it onto the CPU, I'm not sure how to really explain my idea here lol.

Sub added, fun watch. Thank You

You should retry this ice cube thing but applying pressure on the cup over the cpu

I'm curious what would happen if you somehow rig a refrigerant based cooling there instead from a freezer for example.

I thought he was gonna flip the compressed air upside down so it spews out the super cooled liquid

Does it smelt the ice cube immediately even if the CPU never got turned on ??

Make an ice test v2. Maybe run the cpu inside of the fridge. But make it water resistant or some sort

Try automotive stuff for alternative thermal paste!! Try the silver and the copper anti-seize grease!! Maybe try some other automotive “pastes” like battery terminal grease too!! Haha

I think the problem with the icecube not being able to bring the temp down as much as it should has more to do with the metal container than anything else. Ice is pretty cold compared to the cpu, if it were directly on the cpu it might be able to transfer away way more heat way more quickly. Another option would be a container made of copper or the thermally conductive material of the cpu itself.

Wait, so in order to prevent any damage do the pc components, the computer just shutdown by it self?

Same test, just with dry ice pelets, they last longer I’d say and cool better

If you use a copper can instead of an aluminum cup the ice will work better and get a bigger cup to put multiple in, the temperature goes to around 60 under load

Awesome! Now I can finally cool my Ryzen 5800x properly!

Did you use stainless steel? The least thermally conductive metal?

ever tried wrapping the outside of the cooler and up the side of the fan with duct/electrical tape to force the air to pass through the entire block? believe it or not but radiators work better when cool air is passed over the fins rather than the fan just pulling air from the gaps where it meets the cooler

Should have flipped the can of compressed air upside down, when flipped it outputs cold air, it can displace oxygen though so be careful if you try it

i did this once. P4 1850mhz. it got hotter than usual but worked fine. used motherboard w/out fan or heatsink edit: tip: there needs to be a little water with the ice to help conduct heat
