No, Swarmy, this isn't about you, but you'll appreciate it. ArcSin, Trid, Axis - you guys will -love- it.
So, you may recall the Omaha Steaks delivery. This means two things: good fucking cow, and dry ice.
You know what came next.

Yes, those are tootsie pops holding the dry ice above the air intakes on my watercooling radiator. Booyah! [spiffy, but not uber efficient - under 100% load, my cpu temp dropped from 102 to 94F, and all the way down to 85F at idle.]

What's the average room temperature (as related ot the average peak load temperature)? I spend a good amount of air conditioning dollars on keeping my primary systems room below 85 degrees F (to keep CPUs below 110 degrees F).
And incidentally - I find that using the dry ice to fast freeze Freezie Pops is also delightful!

Note to self: capacitors near CPU socket are FUCKING HOT. Do Not Touch.
